Embedded Web Server
The Embedded Web Server (EWS) provides a simple interface to the embedded web server in any networked Dell printer that enables you to manage, configure, and monitor networked printers from your desktop. EWS gives administrators easy access to printer status, configuration, and diagnostic functions. It also provides users with access to printer status and special printing functions such as printing saved jobs. With the EWS software, you can access and manage your printers over a TCP/IP network using a web browser.
The Embedded Web Server enables you to:
■Check supplies status from your desktop, saving a trip to the printer. Access job accounting records to allocate printing costs and plan supplies purchases.
■Define a network printer search and view a list of printers using Printer Neighborhood. The list provides current status information and allows you to manage printers independent of network servers and operating systems.
■Configure printers from your desktop. EWS makes it easy to copy settings from one printer to another.
■Set up and use a simple

■Define a link to your local web server’s support page.
■Access online manuals and technical support information located on the Dell website.

JavaScript is required to access the pages in Printer Neighborhood. If JavaScript is disabled, a warning message appears and the pages do not function properly.
