Using Web Based Management (web browser) to change the print server settings

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

Note

We recommend Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0^® (or higher) or Firefox^® 1.0 (or higher) for Windows^® and Safari™ 1.0 for Macintosh^®. Please also make sure that JavaScript and Cookie are always enabled in whichever browser you use. We recommend you upgrade to Safari™ 1.2 or higher to enable JavaScript. To use a web browser, you will need to know the IP address of the print server.

Type http://printer_ip_address/ into your browser. (Where printer_ip_address is the IP address or the print server name)

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

Note

If you have edited the hosts file on your computer or are using a Domain Name System, you can also enter the DNS name of the print server. As the print server supports TCP/IP and NetBIOS, you can also enter the NetBIOS name of the print server. The NetBIOS name can be seen on the printer settings page. The NetBIOS name assigned is the first 15 characters of the node name and by default it will appear as “BRNxxxxxx” for a wired network or “BRWxxxxxx” for a wireless network (where “xxxxxx” is the last six digits of the Ethernet address).

Click Network Configuration.

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

Click OK.

You can now change the printer server settings.
