Select printer settings remotely with the embedded

 

Web server

 

If you have a Web browser, you can use the printer embedded Web

 

server to control printer settings. To access the embedded Web

 

server, open your browser and enter the printer IP address or the

 

printer host name. You can print a configuration page from the control

 

panel to determine the printer address or hostname.

 

The embedded Web server allows complete remote control panel

 

functionality. Refer to Appendix E for details on how to use the

 

embedded Web server.

 

 

Note

To use the embedded Web server, you must have an IP-based network

 

and a Web browser. The embedded Web server can be used with

 

Microsoft® Internet Explorer 4 or above, and with Netscape Navigator 4

 

and above. IPX-based printer connections are not supported by the

 

embedded Web server.

 

Enter printer commands directly into files

 

 

Some software applications allow you to enter printer commands (for

 

example, escape sequences) directly into files. However, this method

 

of controlling your printer requires that you learn printer PCL

 

commands. For information on PCL printer commands, see

 

Appendix C or the PCL/PJL Technical Reference Package for this

 

printer. (See page 32 for ordering information.)
