How to use Web Based Management (web browser)

To use Web Based Management (Web browser), follow the steps below.

Note

We recommend Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0

(or greater) or Firefox

1.0 (or greater) for Windows

and

Safari™ 1.0 for Macintosh

. Please also make sure that JavaScript and cookies are always enabled in

whichever browser you use. We recommend you upgrade to Safari™ 1.2 or greater to enable JavaScript.
To use a web browser, you will need to know the IP address of the print server.

Start your web browser.

Type http://printer_ip_address/ into your browser. (Where printer_ip_address is the IP

address or the node name)

For example:

http://192.168.1.2/ (if the printer’s IP address is 192.168.1.2.)

Note

• If you have edited the hosts file on your computer or are using a Domain Name System, you can also enter

the DNS name of the print server. As the print server supports TCP/IP and NetBIOS, you can also enter
the NetBIOS name of the print server. The NetBIOS name can be seen on the printer settings page. The
NetBIOS name assigned is the first 15 characters of the node name and by default it will appear as
“BRNxxxxxxxxxxxx” for a wired network or “BRWxxxxxxxxxxxx” for a wireless network.

• For Macintosh

users, you can also have easy access to Web Based Management by clicking the

machine icon on Status Monitor screen.

Click Printer Settings.

Enter a user name and a password.

Note

The login name for the Administrator is “admin” (case sensitive) and the default password is “access”.

Click OK.

Choose the HP LaserJet tab and click Font Setup. Choose a symbol set you want to use from the
Symbol Set list box.
