When the printer is connected to the network, the embedded Web server is automatically available. You
can open the embedded Web server from Windows 95 and later.

Use the embedded Web server to view printer and network status and to manage printing functions from
your computer instead of from the printer control panel.

To use the embedded Web server, you must have Microsoft Internet Explorer 4 and later or Netscape
Navigator 4 and later. The embedded Web server works when the printer is connected to an IP-based
network. The embedded Web server does not support IPX-based or AppleTalk printer connections. You
do not need Internet access to open and use the embedded Web server.

In a supported Web browser on your computer, type the IP address for the printer in the address/
