HP CM8060/CM8050 Color MFP with Edgeline Technology - System Administrator Guide

Use the embedded Web server
The embedded Web server (EWS) provides a method for managing most device functions from a
computer that is on the same network as the device. Some device-configuration features are available
in the embedded Web server that are not available at the device control panel. For example, the only
way to enable the Network Folders digital-sending feature is to use the embedded Web server.
A summary of all the embedded Web server features follows this introduction. Examples of tasks that
you can perform by using the embedded Web server include the following:
●
View the current device and supplies status.
●
Print device information pages.
●
Print a file that is on the network.
●
View and change device configuration settings.
●
Set up the digital sending features for the device.
●
Set up users and groups who have access to the device.
●
Configure permission sets for users and groups.
●
Configure sign-in methods.
●
Restrict color printing and copying.
●
Set up Internet and LAN fax features.
●
Import e-mail addresses or fax speed dials from other sources.
●
Configure automatic alerts for device conditions that you specify.
●
Configure the AutoSend feature, which you can use to send device-configuration and usage
information to your service provider.
●
Set up a sleep schedule for the device.
●
Install third-party software packages.
●
Configure the embedded HP Jetdirect print server.
The embedded Web server feature requires at least 48 MB of RAM in order to connect to the network.
The embedded Web server works when the device is connected to an IP-based network. The embedded
Web server does not support IPX-based device connections. The computer does not need Internet
access to open the embedded Web server; however, some links within the embedded Web server
require an Internet connection.
To open the embedded Web server, open a supported Web browser, and type the device network
address or hostname in the address line. See
Open the embedded Web server on page 40.
NOTE: To find the network address or hostname, go to the device control panel. Touch Network
Address, and touch Print to print an HP Jetdirect configuration page. The network address or hostname
is on that page.
