The embedded web server's screens should be reasonably self-explanatory, and a little exploration will
probably show you what you need to know. All entries show the current values of the print server's

connection to the print server. You can reconnect by pointing your browser at the new IP address.

1. Open your browser and enter the print server's IP address as the URL. (If you don't know the IP
