Embedded Web Server Embedded Web Server The Embedded Web Server (EWS) provides a simple interface to the embedded web server in any networked Dell printer that enables you to manage, configure, and monitor networked printers from your desktop. The EWS gives administrators easy access to printer status, configuration, and diagnostic functions. It also provides users with access to printer status and special printing functions such as printing saved jobs. With the EWS software, you can access and manage your printers over a TCP/IP network using a web browser. The EWS enables you to: „ Check supplies status from your desktop, saving a trip to the printer. Access job accounting records to allocate printing costs and plan supplies purchases. „ Define a network printer search and view a list of printers using Printer Neighborhood. The list provides current status information and allows you to manage printers independent of network servers and operating systems. „ Configure printers from your desktop. The EWS makes it easy to copy settings from one printer to another. „ Define network, administration, and security features for a network printer. „ Set up and use a simple web browser-based printing system. Marketing collateral, sales materials, business forms, or other standardized, frequently used documents can be saved as a group with their original driver settings, then reprinted on demand at high speed from any user's browser. A printer with a hard drive is required to support these functions. „ Troubleshoot print quality problems using built-in diagnostics. „ Define a link to your local web server's support page. „ Access online manuals and technical support information located on the Dell web site. Note: The EWS requires a web browser and a TCP/IP connection between the printer and the network (in Windows, Macintosh, or UNIX environments). TCP/IP and HTTP must be enabled in the printer. JavaScript is required to access the pages in Printer Neighborhood. If JavaScript is disabled, a warning message appears and the pages do not function properly. For complete information about the EWS, click the Help button in the EWS to go to the EWS Online Help. To access the EWS: 1. Launch your web browser. 2. Type your printer's IP address in the browser Address field. Dell 7330 Mono Laser Printer System Administrator Guide 1-4

Embedded Web Server
The Embedded Web Server (EWS) provides a simple interface to the embedded web server in
any networked Dell printer that enables you to manage, configure, and monitor networked
printers from your desktop. The EWS gives administrators easy access to printer status,
configuration, and diagnostic functions. It also provides users with access to printer status and
special printing functions such as printing saved jobs. With the EWS software, you can access
and manage your printers over a TCP/IP network using a web browser.
The EWS enables you to:
Check supplies status from your desktop, saving a trip to the printer. Access job
accounting records to allocate printing costs and plan supplies purchases.
Define a network printer search and view a list of printers using Printer Neighborhood.
The list provides current status information and allows you to manage printers
independent of network servers and operating systems.
Configure printers from your desktop. The EWS makes it easy to copy settings from one
printer to another.
Define network, administration, and security features for a network printer.
Set up and use a simple web browser-based printing system. Marketing collateral, sales
materials, business forms, or other standardized, frequently used documents can be saved
as a group with their original driver settings, then reprinted on demand at high speed from
any user’s browser. A printer with a hard drive is required to support these functions.
Troubleshoot print quality problems using built-in diagnostics.
Define a link to your local web server’s support page.
Access online manuals and technical support information located on the Dell web site.
Note:
The EWS requires a web browser and a TCP/IP connection between the printer and the
network (in Windows, Macintosh, or UNIX environments). TCP/IP and HTTP must be
enabled in the printer. JavaScript is required to access the pages in Printer Neighborhood. If
JavaScript is disabled, a warning message appears and the pages do not function properly.
For complete information about the EWS, click the
Help
button in the EWS to go to the
