Use the embedded web server (EWS)
When the printer is connected to a network, you can
use the printer's home page (embedded web server
or EWS) to view status information, change settings,
and manage it from your computer. No special
software needs to be installed or configured on your
computer.
Note: You can open and use the EWS without
being connected to the Internet, though some
features will not be available.
To open the EWS
1.
Obtain the IP address for the printer. The IP
address is shown on the Network Configuration
Page.
a.
Load paper in the tray.
b.
Touch right arrow
Reports, and then touch Network
Configuration Page.
2.
In a supported web browser on your computer,
type the IP address or hostname assigned to the
printer.
For example, if the IP address is 123.123.123.123,
type the following address into the web browser:
http://123.123.123.123
, touch Setup, touch
For more information about the EWS, see the user
guide. For information about finding the user guide,
see "Where's the user guide?" on page 4.
Tip: After opening the EWS, you can bookmark
it so that you can return to it quickly.
Tip: If you are using the Safari web browser
in Mac OS X, you can also use the Bonjour
bookmark to open the EWS without typing
the IP address. To use the Bonjour bookmark,
open Safari, and then from the Safari menu,
click Preferences. On the Bookmarks tab, in the
Bookmarks bar section, select Include Bonjour,
and then close the window. Click the Bonjour
bookmark, and then select your networked
printer to open the EWS.
