Advanced printer management tools (for networked printers)

When the printer is connected to a network, you can use the embedded Web server to view status information, change settings, and manage the printer from your computer.

NOTE: To view or change some settings, you might need a password.

You can open and use the embedded Web server without being connected to the Internet. However, some features are not available.

About cookies

To open the embedded Web server

NOTE: 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 panel or by printing a network configuration page.

In a supported Web browser on your computer, type the IP address or hostname that has been assigned to the printer.

For example, if the IP address is 192.168.0.12, type the following address into a Web 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:

Starting where you left the application (especially useful when using setup wizards).

Remembering the EWS browser language setting.

Personalizing the EWS Home page.

For information about how to change your privacy and cookie settings and how to view or delete cookies, see the documentation available with your Web browser.
