Before using the EWS, verify that the printer and the computer are powered on and

connected to the network.
Follow these steps to open the EWS:

1. Launch your Internet browser.

Use Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher or Netscape 4.75 or higher.

2. Enter the printer's

IP address

in the browser's address box.

Note: If your computer uses a proxy server to access the Internet, you might need

to configure your browser to by-pass the proxy server in order to access

the EWS.

If you do not know the printer IP address,

print an HP Report page

.

Note: For instructions on using the printer's EWS, see the online help. To open

the online help, click Help under the Other Links heading.

Caution: If you lose your connection, you may need to use the new settings

to reconnect. If the printer loses its network connection, you may need to

reset it to factory defaults and reinstall the software.

5.2.11 Resetting the printer to the factory default settings

Once the printer is configured for a network, its configuration settings are saved in

its memory.
Resetting the printer to its factory default settings will clear all the settings from the

printer's memory for your network. This should only be done as a last resort when

troubleshooting the printer.
Also, resetting the printer to its factory default settings erases the

embedded Web

server (EWS)

administrator password.

Resetting the printer to its factory default settings may require you to reinstall the

printer software. Additionally, you will also have to reconfigure the printer's security

settings.
Follow these steps to reset the printer to the factory default settings:

1. Verify that the printer is powered on.
2. Press and hold down the Report Page button.
3. While holding down the Report Page button, press the Cancel button three

times.

4. Release the Report Page button.
