Finding advanced networking and administrator information

This chapter covers basic administrative support tasks using the Embedded Web Server. For more advanced system support tasks, see the Networking Guide on the Software and Documentation CD or the Embedded Web Server — Security: Administrator's Guide on the Lexmark support Web site at http://support.lexmark.com.

Accessing the remote control panel

The remote control panel on your computer screen lets you interact with the printer control panel, even when you are not physically near the network printer. From your computer screen, you can view the printer status and do print- related tasks you might normally do while standing at the network printer.

1Open a Web browser, and then type the printer IP address in the address field.

Notes:

•Print a network setup page or menu settings page, and then locate the IP address in the TCP/IP section. The IP address appears as four sets of numbers separated by periods, such as 123.123.123.123.

•If you are using a proxy server, then temporarily disable it to load the Web page correctly.

2Press Enter to open the Web page of your printer.

3Click Applications.

Note: The remote control panel requires a Java plug‑in to launch.

Modifying confidential print settings

Note: This feature is available only in network printers or printers connected to print servers.

1Open a Web browser, and then type the printer IP address in the address field.

Notes:

•View the printer IP address in the TCP/IP section in the Network/Ports menu. The IP address appears as four sets of numbers separated by periods, such as 123.123.123.123.

•If you are using a proxy server, then temporarily disable it to load the Web page correctly.

2Click Settings tab > Security > Confidential Print Setup.
