Use the printer's EWS to do the following:

• Check the printer's status.
• Adjust the printer's network configuration.
• Check estimated ink levels in the print

cartridges.

• View network statistics.
• Visit HP's Web site for support information and

to purchase supplies.

Caution: It is recommended that the printer and the computers that use it be

on the same subnet. Printer installation across subnets can be problematic

depending on the type of router used.

Before using the EWS, verify that the printer and the computer are powered on and

connected to the network.
Follow these steps to open the EWS:

1. Launch your Internet browser.

Use Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher or Netscape 4.75 or higher.

2. Enter either the printer's

IP address

or

host name

in the browser's address box.

Note: If the printer is on a different

subnet

than your computer, enter the printer's

IP address (for example: http://15.252.32.234) in the browser's address

box to open the embedded Web server. Also, if your computer uses a proxy

server to access the Internet, you might need to configure your browser to

by-pass the proxy server in order to access the EWS.

If you don't know the printer IP address or host name,

print an HP Report page

.

Note: For instructions on using the printer's EWS, see the online help. To open

the online help, click Help under the Other Links heading.

Caution: If you lose your connection, you may need to use the new settings

to reconnect. If the printer loses its network connection, you may need to

reset it to factory defaults and reinstall the software.
