Viewing the Embedded Web Server Note For HP Jetdirect wireless print servers, this section assumes that a wireless connection to your network has been established. If a wireless network connection has not yet been established, you can use the embedded Web server to configure the HP Jetdirect wireless print server with settings for your network. See Appendix B. Before you can use the embedded Web server, the HP Jetdirect print server must be configured with an IP address. For a description of an IP address and an overview of TCP/IP networking, see Appendix A. There are many ways to configure an IP address on the print server. For example, you can automatically configure IP parameters over the network using BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) or DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) each time the print server is turned on. Or, you can manually configure IP parameters using the printer's control panel (for selected printers with internal print servers), Telnet, the "arp" and "ping" commands, HP Web Jetadmin or other management software. For more information on TCP/IP configuration options, see Chapter 3. When powered on, an HP Jetdirect print server that is unable to retrieve a valid IP address from the network will automatically assign itself either a legacy default IP address 192.0.0.192 or a link-local address in the range 169.254.1.0 to 169.254.254.255. The IP address configured on your print server can be determined by inspecting the Jetdirect configuration page for the print server. See Chapter 3 for more information. If the legacy default IP address 192.0.0.192 has been assigned, you must temporarily set up your computer with the same IP network number or establish a route to the print server before you can gain access to the embedded Web server. After an IP address is established on the print server, perform the following steps: ENWW Using the Embedded Web Server 106
