Chapter 6: Configuring the PrintServer Using the
Web-based Utility
Overview
After setting up the PrintServer with the Setup Wizard, the PrintServer will be ready for use. However, if you’d like
to change its advanced settings, use the PrintServer’s web-based utility. This chapter will describe each web
page of the utility and each page’s key functions. The utility can be accessed via your web browser through the
use of a networked computer.
There are six main tabs: Setup, Protocol, Wireless, Printer, Status, and Exit. Additional tabs will be available after
you click one of the main tabs.
To access the web-based utility, launch Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator, and enter the PrintServer’s IP
address in the Address field. Then press Enter.
You will be asked to enter a User name and Password (see Figure 6-1). Leave the User name field blank, and
enter admin in the Password field. Then click the OK button.
The Setup Tab
The first screen that appears is the Setup tab and allows you to change the PrintServer’s general settings.
Device Name. Enter the PrintServer’s name in the field provided. The name is located on a sticker on the bottom
of the PrintServer.
Password. To change the PrintServer’s password, enter the current password in the Current Password field.
Enter the new password in the New Password field, and then enter the new password again in the Verify
Password field.
Protocols. Check the box(es) for AppleTalk or NetBEUI, if they are used by your network.
Click the Save button to apply your changes, or click Cancel to cancel your changes.

click Back until you reach the Welcome screen. Click Exit.
