Embedded Web server

The digital sender is equipped with an embedded Web server (EWS), which provides access to information about digital sending and network activities. When a Web server is "embedded," it resides on a hardware device (such as a digital sender) in the firmware, rather than as software that is loaded on a network server. The advantage of an embedded Web server is that it provides an interface to the device that anyone who has a network-connected computer and a standard Web browser can use. You do not need to install or configure any special software.

Features

Use the EWS to view the digital sender and network status and to manage digital sending functions from your computer. With the EWS, you can complete the following tasks:

●View digital-sender status information

●Determine the remaining life on the ADF maintenance kit

●View the control-panel menu configuration

●View device configuration reports

●Receive notification of digital-sender events

●Add or customize links to other Web sites

●Select the language in which to show the embedded Web server pages

●View and change network configuration

View the EWS Web pages

To view the EWS Web pages, you need to have the IP address for the digital sender. You can find the IP address in one of the two following ways:

●Go to the digital sender and look at the upper-left corner of the touchscreen. The IP address should appear next to the word Ready.

●If the IP address does not appear on the touchscreen, press the Menu button on the control panel. Touch the INFORMATION menu, and then touch CONFIGURATION. The digital-sender configuration information appears on the touchscreen. Touch the Next button to see the Jetdirect data. Scroll through the information until you find the IP address.

On a computer, open a Web browser and type the digital sender IP address into the Address box to open the EWS Web page.

NOTE: You can gain access to the embedded Web server from any operating system that supports the TCP/IP protocol and a Web browser, preferably either Netscape Navigator 4.7x or Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0x or later. You cannot view the embedded Web server pages from outside a firewall.
