function
Overview
A standard World Wide Web Browser (we recommend Netscape Navigator version 3.0 or
later/Microsoft Internet Explorer version 3.02a or later) can be used to manage your printer
using the HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol). It is possible to get the following information
from the printer using a web browser and to configure Network and printer settings.
1. Printer status information
2. Take control of the printer front panel
3. Software Version information of the printer and network card
4. Consumable lists, Frequency asked question, etc
You must use the TCP/IP protocol on your network and have a valid IP address programmed
into the print server and computer.

environment).
