How do I access the Embedded Web Server?

The Embedded Web Server enables you to manage your printer and your printing
jobs remotely using an ordinary Web browser running on any computer.

Note

In order to use the Embedded Web Server, you must have a TCP/IP

connection to your printer. If you have an Appletalk, Novell, or USB connection
to your printer, you will not be able to use the Embedded Web Server.

The following browsers are known to be compatible with the Embedded Web Server:

Internet Explorer 5.5 or later, for Windows.

Internet Explorer 5.2.1 or later, for Mac OS 9.

Internet Explorer 5.1 or later, for Mac OS X.

Netscape Navigator 6.01 or later.

Mozilla 1.5 or later.

Safari.

There are several ways to access the Embedded Web Server:

On any computer, open your Web browser and give the address of your printer.
You can find out the address of your printer (starting with http:) from the front
panel, by highlighting the

icon.

Select Status of my printer, Check media available, or Manage my printer's
queue
from the Services tab of your Windows printer driver, or from the Services
panel of your Mac OS printer driver.

On a computer running Windows with your printer software installed, double–click
the Printer Access Utility icon on your desktop, then select your printer.

If you have followed these instructions but failed to get through to the Embedded Web
Server, see “The problem is I cannot access the Embedded Web Server from my
browser” on page 221.

Server. To do this:
