The printer must be on a network and must have an IP address. The IP

address for the printer can be found by touching the Wireless button on the control

been assigned to the printer.

browser such as Internet Explorer: http://192.168.0.12.

About cookies

The embedded Web server (EWS) places very small text files (cookies) on your hard

drive when you are browsing. These files let the EWS recognize your computer the next

time you visit. For example, if you have configured the EWS language, a cookie helps

remember which language you have selected so that the next time you access the EWS,

the pages are displayed in that language. Though some cookies are cleared at the end

of each session (such as the cookie that stores the selected language), others (such as the

cookie that stores customer-specific preferences) are stored on the computer until you

clear them manually.
You can configure your browser to accept all cookies, or you can configure it to alert

you every time a cookie is offered, which allows you to decide which cookies to accept

or refuse. You can also use your browser to remove unwanted cookies.

NOTE:

Depending on your printer, if you disable cookies, you also disable one or

more of the following features:
