Set a Login Password for Web Based Management

We recommend setting a login password to prevent unauthorized access to Web Based Management.
  1. Start your web browser.
  2. Type "http://machine's IP address" in your browser's address bar (where "machine's IP address" is the machine's IP address).
    For example:

    http://192.168.1.2

    • If you are using a Domain Name System or enable a NetBIOS name, you can type another name, such as "SharedPrinter" instead of the IP address.

      • For example:

        http://SharedPrinter

      If you enable a NetBIOS name, you can also use the node name.

      • For example:

        http://brnxxxxxxxxxxxx

      The NetBIOS name can be found in the Network Configuration Report.

    • For Mac, access Web Based Management by clicking the machine's icon on the Status Monitor screen.
  3. No password is required by default. Type a password if you have set one, and then click image.
  4. Click Administrator.
  5. Type the password you want to use in the Enter New Password field (8 to 32 characters).
  6. Retype the password in the Confirm New Password field.
  7. Click Submit.

In the future, every time you access Web Based Management, type the password in the Login field, and then click image.

After configuring the settings, log off by clicking image.
