Overview
The method you should use to manage and configure your Axis Network
Print Server depends on the operating system protocols of your network.
The table below displays which method to use for each supported
environment.
Note:
Using a Web Browser for Print Server Management
Once you have established the Axis Network Print Server in the TCP/IP
environment, as described in “Assigning an IP Address to the Print
Server” on page 16, you are free to access the Axis Network Print Server
Web pages from any standard Web browser.
The Web interface of the Axis Network Print Server is divided into two
modes of operation, User mode and Admin mode:
User In User mode you can change language, but you have no rights to change
any other parameters. However, if you have access rights to the Admin
mode, you can change some of the basic parameters from User mode via
the Configuration Wizard. This mode is intended for regular users who are
only interested in using the print server's interface for checking print jobs
or viewing printer properties. If you want to change any other of the print
server's settings, you must enter the Admin mode.
