Operating mode Normal Quiet Mode Eco-Mode Printer performance The printer provides optimum performance. The printer operates quietly by printing output at a slower speed. The printer minimizes waste (toner, paper, energy) while maintaining acceptable print quality. Setting security using the Embedded Web Server (EWS) You can enhance the security of network communications and device configuration by using the advanced security options. These features are available through the Web page of the device. Setting the system password Setting the system password protects configuration of the Embedded Web Server. A system password is also required for Secure mode and confidential communication with MVP. To set the system password: 1 Open your Web browser. In the address line, enter the IP address of the printer you want to configure using the format: http: //ip_address/. 2 Click Configuration. 3 Under Other Settings, click Security. 4 Click Create Password, if one has not been set previously. If a password has already been set, click Change or Remove Password.

You can connect to the Embedded Web Server more securely by connecting to the SSL port instead of the default HTTP port. The SSL port connection will encrypt all Web server network communications between the PC and the printer. To connect to the SSL port: Open your Web browser. In the address line, enter the IP address of the printer you want to configure using the format: https: //ip_address/. Selecting printer operating mode 63
