Configuring your network printer

Using the HTTP (web browser) and the TCP/IP protocol to change the print/scan
server settings

A standard web browser (we recommend Microsoft Internet Explorer

®

version 6.0 or later, or Netscape

Navigator

®

version 7.1 or later) can be used to change your print/scan server settings using the HTTP (Hyper

Text Transfer Protocol). To use a web browser, you must have assigned an IP address to the print/scan
server.

1

Type

http://printer_ip_address/

into your browser. (Where

printer_ip_address

is the IP

address or the print/scan server name)

For example: http://192.168.1.2/ (if the printer’s IP address is 192.168.1.2.)

Note

If you have edited the hosts file on your computer or are using Domain Name System, you can also enter the
DNS name of the print/scan server. As the print/scan server supports TCP/IP and NetBIOS names, you can
also enter the NetBIOS name of the print/scan server. The NetBIOS name can be seen in the Network
Configuration page. The NetBIOS name assigned is the first 15 characters of the node name and by default
it will appear as

BRN_xxxxxx

where

xxxxxx

is the last six digits of the Ethernet address.

2

Click Network Configuration.

3

Enter a user name and a password. The User Name is

admin

and the default Password is

access

.

4

Click OK.

5

Click Configure TCP/IP.

6

You can now change the printer server settings.
