You can now change the print server settings.

Using a HTTP (web browser) to change the print/scan 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 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 (DNS), 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 Network 
Configuration List. See Printing the Network Configuration List on page 88 for information on how to print the 
Network Configuration List on your print server. The NetBIOS name assigned is the first 15 characters of the 
node name and by default it will appear as 

BRW_xxxxxx

 where 

xxxxxx

 is the last six digits of the Ethernet 

address.

Click Network Configuration.

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