Accessing Administration and Configuration

Settings

You can access the administration and configuration settings from the Tools tab on the control panel or

from the Properties tab in CentreWare Internet Services. The control panel consists of a touch screen and

buttons you press to control the functions available on the printer. CentreWare Internet Services is the

administration and configuration software installed on the embedded Web server in the printer. It allows

you to configure and administer the printer from a Web browser.

The administrator password is required when accessing locked settings in CentreWare Internet Services

or at the control panel. Most printer models have a default configuration that restricts access to some

settings. Access is restricted for settings on the Properties tab in CentreWare Internet Services, and

settings on the Tools tab on the control panel touch screen.

Accessing the Control Panel as a System Administrator

1. At the printer control panel, press the Machine Status button, then touch the Tools tab.

2. Press the Log In/Out button.

3. Type admin and touch Next.

4. Type the administrator password, then touch Done. The default password is 1111.
