The HP Embedded Web Server works when the printer is connected to an IP-based network. The HP
Embedded Web Server does not support IPX-based printer connections. Internet access is not needed to open
and use the HP Embedded Web Server.
When the printer is connected to the network, the HP Embedded Web Server is automatically available.
NOTE: The HP Embedded Web Server is not accessible beyond the network rewall.
How to access the HP Embedded Web Server (EWS)
1. From the Home screen on the printer control panel, touch the Network button to display the IP
address or host name.
2. Open a Web browser, and in the address line, type the IP address or host name exactly as it displays on
the printer control panel. Press the Enter key on the computer keyboard. The EWS opens.
