Supported HP Web Jetadmin Version HP Web Jetadmin is a browser-based, enterprise management tool for network devices. It is available from HP online support at the following URL: http://www.hp.com/go/webjetadmin HP Web Jetadmin version 7.8 (or greater) is recommended for operation with the HP Jetdirect embedded Web server. A link to HP Web Jetadmin will be displayed on the embedded Web server if HP Web Jetadmin has discovered this device through an Integration URL. Currently, browser support between HP Web Jetadmin and the embedded Web server may differ. For supported browsers with HP Web Jetadmin, visit http://www.hp.com/go/webjetadmin. Viewing the Embedded Web Server 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 TCP/IP Overview. 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, Telnet, the "arp" and "ping" system commands, HP Web Jetadmin or other management software. For more information on TCP/IP configuration options, see TCP/IP Configuration. 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 TCP/ IP Configuration 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: 1 Run a supported Web browser. ENWW Viewing the Embedded Web Server 45
