Using the Embedded Web Server 48

Viewing the Embedded Web Server

Before you can use the embedded Web server, the HP Jetdirect projector
server must be configured with an IP address. For a description of an IP address
and an overview of TCP/IP networking, see

Appendix A

.

There are many ways to configure an IP address on the server. For example,
you can automatically configure IP parameters over the network using
BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) or DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol) each time the server is turned on. Or, you can manually configure
IP parameters using the “arp” and “ping” commands, HP Web Jetadmin, or
other management software. For more information on TCP/IP configuration
options, see

Chapter 3

.

When powered on, an HP Jetdirect server that is unable to retrieve a valid IP
address from the network will automatically assign itself either a legacy
default IP address 192.0.0.192 or a link-local address in the range 169.254.1.0
to 169.254.254.255. The IP address configured on your server can be
determined by inspecting the IP address shown in the projector’s on-screen
menus. See

Chapter 3

for more information.

If the legacy default IP address 192.0.0.192 has been assigned, you must
temporarily set up your computer with the same IP network number or
establish a route to the server before you can gain access to the embedded Web
server.

To access the embedded Web server, perform the following steps:

1.

Run a supported Web browser.

2.

Enter the IP address of the projector server as the URL.
