Using the HTTP (web browser) and the TCP/IP protocol to change the print/scan
server settings
A standard web browser (we recommend Microsoft Internet Explorer
®
version 6.0 or later, or Netscape
Navigator
®
version 7.1 or later) can be used to change your print/scan server settings using the HTTP (Hyper
Text Transfer Protocol). To use a web browser, you must have assigned an IP address to the print/scan
server.
1
Type
http://printer_ip_address/
into your browser. (Where
printer_ip_address
is the IP
address or the print/scan 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/scan server. As the print/scan server supports TCP/IP and NetBIOS names, you can
also enter the NetBIOS name of the print/scan server. The NetBIOS name can be seen in the Network
Configuration 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.

Enter a user name and a password. The User Name is
admin
and the default Password is

.

Click OK.

Click Configure TCP/IP.

You can now change the printer server settings.
