Use the HP Embedded Web Server

This product is equipped with an embedded Web server (EWS), which provides access to information about product and network activities. A Web server provides an environment in which Web programs may run, much in the same way that an operating system, such as Windows, provides an environment for programs to run on a computer. The output from these programs can then be displayed by a Web browser.

An “embedded” Web server resides on a hardware device (such as an HP printer) or in firmware, rather than as software that is loaded on a network server.

The advantage of an EWS is that it provides an interface to the product that anyone with a network- connected product and computer can use. There is no special software to install or configure, but you must have a supported Web browser on the computer. To gain access to the EWS, type the IP address for the product in the address line of the browser.

NOTE: For Macintosh operating systems, you can use the HP EWS over a USB connection after installing the Macintosh software included with the product.

About cookies

The HP EWS places very small text files (cookies) on your hard drive when you are browsing. These files let the HP EWS recognize your computer the next time you visit. For example, if you have configured the HP EWS language, a cookie helps remember which language you have selected so that the next time you access the HP EWS, the pages are displayed in that language. Though some cookies are cleared at the end of each session (such as the cookie that stores the selected language), others (such as the cookie that stores customer-specific preferences) are stored on the computer until you clear them manually.

IMPORTANT: The cookies that the HP EWS stores on your computer are only used for saving settings on your computer or for sharing information between the printer and the computer. These cookies are not sent to any HP Websites.
