How to configure the print server settings using Web Based Management (web browser)

A standard web browser can be used to change your print server settings using the HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol).

Note

To use a web browser, you will need to know the IP address or node name of the print server.

Start your web browser.

Type ”http://printer’s IP address/” into your browser. (where ”printer’s IP address” is the printer’s IP address or the node name)

•

For example:

http://192.168.1.2/ (if the printer’s IP address is 192.168.1.2.)

http://BRN123456765432/ (if the printer’s node name is BRN123456765432.)

Note

•

If you have edited the hosts file on your computer or are using a Domain Name System (DNS), you can also enter the DNS name of the print server. As the print server supports TCP/IP and NetBIOS names, you can also enter the NetBIOS name of the print server. The NetBIOS name can be seen in the Network Configuration List. To learn how to print the Network Configuration List, see Printing the Network Configuration List. The NetBIOS name assigned is the first 15 characters of the node name and by default it will appear as ”BRNxxxxxxxxxxxx” for a wired network or ”BRWxxxxxxxxxxxx” for a wireless network.

For Macintosh^® users, you can have easy access to the Web Based Management System by clicking the machine icon on Status Monitor screen. For more information, see the Software User’s Guide on the CD-ROM.

Click Network Configuration.

Enter a user name and a password. The default User Name is ”admin” and the default password is ”access”.

Click OK.

You can now change the printer server settings.

Note

If you have changed the protocol settings, restart the printer after clicking Submit to activate the configuration.
