Embedded Web server (HP Color LaserJet 4600 and 4650 models only) This printer is equipped with an embedded Web server that provides access to information about printer and network activities. A Web server provides an environment in which Web programs can run, in much the same way that an operating system, such as Windows, provides an environment in which programs can run, on your computer. The output from these programs can then be viewed in a Web browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator. When a Web server is "embedded," it resides on a hardware device (such as a printer) or in firmware, rather than being available as software that is loaded on a network server. The advantage of an embedded Web server is that it provides an interface to the printer that anyone who has a network-connected computer or a standard Web browser can use. There is no special software to install or configure. For more information about the HP embedded Web server, see the Embedded Web Server User Guide. You can find this guide on the CD-ROM that is included with the printer. Features Use the HP embedded Web server to view printer and network card status and manage printing functions from your computer. With the HP embedded Web server, you can do the following: ■ View printer status information. ■ Determine the remaining life on all supplies and order new ones. ■ View and change tray configurations. ■ View and change the printer control-panel menu configuration. ■ View and print internal pages. ■ Receive notification of printer and supplies events. ■ Add or customize links to other Web sites. ■ Select the language in which to show the embedded Web server pages. ■ View and change network configuration. HP Toolbox (HP Color LaserJet 4650 models only) The HP Toolbox is a software program that can be used for the following tasks: ■ Check the printer status. ■ View troubleshooting information. ■ View online documentation. ■ Print internal printer pages. You can view the HP Toolbox when the printer is directly connected to your computer or when it is connected to a network. You have to perform a complete software installation before you can use the HP Toolbox. 80 Chapter 3 Installation and configuration ENWW
