Embedded Web server
A Web server provides an environment in which Web
programs can run, in much the same way that an
operating system, such as Microsoft
®
Windows
®
,
provides an environment in which programs can run on
your computer. A Web browser, such as Microsoft
Internet Explorer, Netscape, Opera, Mozilla Firefox,
or Safari can show output from a Web server.
An embedded Web server (EWS) resides on a
hardware product (such as a printer) or in the firmware,
rather than as software that is loaded on a network
server. The advantage of an embedded Web server is
that it provides an interface to the product that anyone
who has a network-connected computer and a standard
Web browser can open and use. No special software
needs to be installed or configured.
With the HP Embedded Web Server, you can view
product status information, change settings, and
manage the product at your computer.
To open the embedded Web server
In a supported Web browser on your computer, type the
IP address that has been assigned to the device.
For example, if the IP address is 123.123.123.123,
type the following address into the Web browser:
http://123.123.123.123
The IP address for the device is listed on the Network
configuration page.
After you open the embedded Web server, you can
bookmark it so that you can return to it quickly in the
future.
