Dell Printer Configuration Web Tool

The Dell Printer Configuration Web Tool, also known as the Printer Embedded Web Server, lets you monitor the status of your network printer without leaving your desk. View and/or change the printer configuration settings, monitor toner level, and when it is time to order replacement toner cartridges, just click the Dell supplies link right from your Web browser.

NOTE: The Dell Printer Configuration Web Tool is only available when the multi-function printer is connected to a (or the) network. See page page 43.

To launch the Dell Printer Configuration Web Tool, just type your network printer's IP address in your Web browser. You can also launch the Dell Printer Configuration Web Tool from the Network Status Monitor Center. For details, see page 43.

If you do not know what your printer's IP address is, print a network configuration page, which lists the IP address:

1.Press <Menu> until you see "Network Setup" on the bottom line of the display.

2.Press the scroll button ( or )until "Print Sys. Data" displays on the bottom line.

3.Press <Select>. The first menu item, "Yes" displays on the bottom line.

4.Press <Select> to print a network configuration page.

If an IP address has not been assigned, assign one for your multi-function printer. See "Configuring TCP/IP" on page 147.
