● Viewing printer documentation
● Gaining access to troubleshooting and maintenance tools
You can view the HP Easy Printer Care software when the printer is directly connected to your
computer or when it is connected to a network. Perform a complete software installation in order to
use the HP Easy Printer Care software.
Embedded Web server
The printer is equipped with an embedded Web server, which provides access to information about
printer and network activities. This information appears in a Web browser, such as Microsoft Internet
Explorer or Netscape Navigator.
The embedded Web server resides on the printer. It is not loaded on a network server.
The embedded Web server provides an interface to the printer that anyone who has a network-
connected computer and a standard Web browser can use. No special software is installed or
configured, but you must have a supported Web browser on your computer. To gain access to the
embedded Web server, type the IP address for the printer in the address line of the browser. (To find
the IP address, print a configuration page. For more information about printing a configuration page,
see
Using printer information pages .)
For a complete explanation of the features and functionality of the embedded Web server, see Using
the embedded Web server .
