1 Overview What is an 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, Apple Safari, or Mozilla Firefox, can show output from a Web server.

In the Address or Go to field, type the IPv4 or IPv6 TCP/IP address, the host name, or the configured host name that is assigned to the product. See the following examples. ● IPv4 TCP/IP address: http://192.168.1.
CAUTION: If you do not close the browser, the connection to the product HP EWS continues to run and could pose security risks. Navigating through the HP Embedded Web Server To navigate through the HP EWS screens, click one of the tabs (such as Information or Settings), and then click one of the menus on the navigation bar that is located on the left side of the screen. The following illustration and table provide information about the HP EWS screens.
