HP Embedded Web Server
The HP Embedded Web Server (HP EWS) is a standard feature on the following HP LaserJet 5200 printer models when they are connected through a network:
●HP LaserJet 5200n
●HP LaserJet 5200tn
●HP LaserJet 5200dtn
The base model, the HP LaserJet 5200 printer, can use the HP EWS if an optional EIO Jetdirect card is installed.
The HP EWS provides a simple, easy-to-use solution for one-to-one device management. Instead of installing management software, such as HP Web Jetadmin, use HP EWS for remote management in offices that have a limited number of devices. The only requirement is that the management console must have a supported Web browser.
In environments that have a larger number of devices, in which one-to-one management is impractical, the HP Embedded Web Server and HP Web Jetadmin work together to provide scalable remote device management. Use HP Web Jetadmin to consolidate management tasks and perform operations on a selected set of devices. . For such environments, HP provides hooks between the HP EWS and HP Web Jetadmin to allow configuration of HP EWS features on multiple devices in one operation. For example, you can set the security password for the HP EWS simultaneously on a cluster of devices.
