Since the beginning of July, Axis Communications has been shipping print servers and a print utility for Windows that uses SLP v2 to discover printers.

Axis Print Servers with firmware version 6.0 or higher hosts a v2 SA that for each connected printer offers a 'service:printer:raw-tcp' service according to the 'draft-ietf-svrloc-rawtcp-printer-scheme-01.txt' document.

The new 'Axis Print System' for Windows is a printing utility which includes a v2 UA to locate the offered printers. It makes it very easy to locate printers and also helps to automatically select the correct printer driver for the printer attached to the print server.

The new firmware version and the Axis Print System can be downloaded free from an Axis web site, e.g. http://www.axis.com/products/print_servers/autogo.html . The software is called 'Auto-Go' on the web site.
