How to Access HP Web JetAdmin

Once the HP Web JetAdmin software has been installed on the supported server platform, you can access HP Web JetAdmin in a supported web browser from a client workstation by entering one of the following URLs:

!http://server.domain:port/

where server.domain is your server’s hostname and port is the port number that you entered during the installation (the default port is 8000). This information is available in the url.txt file, which is stored in the directory where HP Web JetAdmin is installed.

!http://ipaddress:port/

where ipaddress is the IP address of the machine where HP Web JetAdmin is located.

Note

For non-Windows operating systems, the settings in HP Web JetAdmin

 

may not be overridden by the printer driver settings, if the features in

 

HP Web JetAdmin do not exist in the printer driver. Printer driver

 

settings override settings in HP Web JetAdmin for those settings which

 

appear in both places.

 

 

HP JetDirect Embedded Web Server

The HP JetDirect Embedded Web Server provides a solution for those who choose not to implement device management applications, such as HP Web JetAdmin.

With the HP JetDirect Embedded Web Server, you can access JetDirect print servers directly from a web browser (such as Netscape Navigator or Microsoft's Internet Explorer) without installing any software. You can use the Embedded Web Server to configure JetDirect print servers, or view status information for the JetDirect print server and the connected peripheral.

The JetDirect device is mapped to a unique URL and is accessible from a web browser using the JetDirect IP address or hostname (this can be bookmarked for easy continued access to the Embedded Web Server’s home page).

Access the Embedded Web Server by going to:
