I have installed and configured IPP on a Win 2008 R2 Server. I have installed the printer driver and shared the printer object. When I connect the server using the IE (http://serverIP/Printers/or http://localhost/Printers) from a Win 2008 R2 & Win 2003 Ent Edition machine I have observed that Connect link is working OK. However if using Chrome or Firefox it is missing under Printer Action.
My main issue with this is we are a chrome using organisation :(
