Embedded Web server This MFP is equipped with an embedded Web server, which provides access to information about MFP and network activities. A Web server provides an environment in which Web programs can run, similar to the way an operating system, such as Windows, provides an environment for programs to 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," that means that it resides on a hardware device (such as an MFP) or in firmware, rather than as software that is loaded on a network server. The advantage of an embedded Web server is that it provides an interface to the MFP that anyone who has a network-connected computer or a standard Web browser can use. You do not need to install or configure any special software. For more information about the HP embedded Web server, see the Embedded Web Server User Guide. You can find this guide on the CDROM that was included with the MFP. For information about the features and functionality of the embedded Web server, see Embedded Web server. HP Toolbox The HP Toolbox is a Windows-only software program that can be used for the following tasks: ● check the MFP status ● print internal MFP pages You can view the HP Toolbox when the MFP is connected to a network. You must have performed a complete software installation before using the HP Toolbox. For more information about the HP Toolbox, see HP Toolbox.
