Using the HTTP (web browser) and the TCP/IP protocol to change the print 
server settings

A standard web browser (we recommend Microsoft Internet Explorer

®

 version 5.0 or later, or Netscape 

Navigator

®

 version 4.0 or later) can be used to change your print server settings using the HTTP (Hyper Text 

Transfer Protocol). To use a web browser, you must have assigned an IP address to the print server.

1

Type 

http://printer_ip_address/

 into your browser. (Where 

printer_ip_address

 is the IP 

address or the print server name)

For example: http://192.168.1.2/ (if the printer’s IP address is 192.168.1.2.)

Note

If you have edited the hosts file on your computer or are using Domain Name System, you can also enter the 
DNS name of the print server. As the print server supports TCP/IP and NetBIOS names, you can also enter 
the NetBIOS name of the print server. The NetBIOS name can be seen in the printer settings page. The 
NetBIOS name assigned is the first 15 characters of the node name and by default it will appear as 

BRN_xxxxxx

 where 

xxxxxx

 is the last six digits of the Ethernet address.
