If an administrator password is set, you are prompted for a User Name and Password to
access network parameters. For more information, click Help, or see
Admin. Account

Device tabs
Instead of the Home tab, various device tabs are displayed if the attached network device also
contains a supported HP Embedded Web Server. Device tabs provide access to the HP Embedded
Web Server pages provided by the device. For information on Device tab features, see the
HP Embedded Web Server guide for the device. This guide is supplied with HP LaserJet printers and
MFPs that support an HP Embedded Web Server.
Networking tab
The Networking tab provides access to HP Jetdirect network configuration parameters and status. At
the top of the page, the printer/MFP model, host name, and IP address are displayed. These items
are persistent on all network configuration pages. The menu items in the left margin provide access to
configuration and status pages.
NOTE: The information displayed depends on the HP Jetdirect print server and device. Value-
featured print servers provide limited information and capabilities.
