HP Scitex FB700 Industrial Printer - Manual (Page 14)

Download a printer events file
The printer maintains a continuous log of its operations and settings in plain text files, which it stores
on its internal hard disk drive. These files are useful for troubleshooting. To access these files, select
the Get Printer Events Files option from the Embedded Web Server menu. From the list of files, click
the link to the file you want to view or save to your computer.
Update the printer software
HP occasionally issues new versions of the embedded software (printer firmware). After obtaining an
update file, you can use the Embedded Web Server to install it onto the printer.
From the Embedded Web Server, select the Update Printer Software option from the menu. Follow
the onscreen instructions to upload and install the software update.
Transfer a custom media definition
The Media Wizard enables you to define custom media definitions, in addition to the standard
definitions that are supplied with the printer. You can use the Embedded Web Server to download a
custom media definition from a printer to your computer, then upload it to a different printer.
When you select Retrieve Custom Media File from the web server, the web server displays a list of
custom media definitions that exist on the printer. Select one of these definitions, and it is saved to
your computer.
To send a custom media definition to a printer, enter its IP address into the web browser. When you
choose Select Custom Media File to Install from the web server, the web server prompts you to
browse to and enter the name of the file you want to send to the printer. When you click Send, the file
is sent to the printer. After the printer receives the file, it should be visible on the printer's control
panel in the list of media.
Display job accounting information
Select Job Accounting to display information for each print job, such as date and time printed, and
amount of media and ink used.
Display printer usage data
Select Printer Usage to display the cumulative amounts of sheet-fed media, roll-fed media, and ink
used for the life of the printer.
