Administrative Features

The Embedded Web Server

The Embedded Web Server is the administration and configuration software that is installed in the

printer. It allows you to configure and administer the printer from a Web browser.

The Embedded Web Server requires:

A TCP/IP connection between the printer and the network in Windows, Macintosh, UNIX, or Linux

environments.

TCP/IP and HTTP enabled in the printer.

A network-connected computer with a Web browser that supports JavaScript.

Accessing the Embedded Web Server

At your computer, open a Web browser. In the address field, type the IP address of the printer, then press

Enter or Return.

Finding the IP Address of Your Printer

To install the print driver for a network-connected printer, you need the IP address of your printer.

You also need the IP address to access the settings of your printer through the Embedded Web Server.

You can view the IP address of your printer on the control panel or on the Configuration Report.

Note:

Wait until the printer has been on for 2 minutes to view the TCP/IP address. If the TCP/IP address

is 0.0.0.0 or begins with 169, this indicates a network connectivity issue. For details, refer to
