You can disable the connection to HP ePrint if required for security. At the front panel, tap , then at the right top corner of the page, then Services > HP Connected > HP ePrint connectivity > Disable. Disable just puts the remote printing function on hold. If you want to resume using it, you just need to re-enable it in the same menu. No more setup steps are required. If you want to disable remote printing permanently, tap Remove. To use remote printing again, you will need to set it up again from scratch. Configure firmware updates You can choose from the Embedded Web Server or from the front panel whether and how to download firmware updates. NOTE: If an administrator password has been set, it will be required to change these settings. ● In the Embedded Web Server: Click About printer > Firmware update. ● Using the front panel: Tap , then System > Firmware update. The following settings are available: ● Download new firmware automatically: If you select Automatically (the default setting), the printer will automatically download new firmware whenever it becomes available. Deactivate this option to download new firmware manually. NOTE: Downloading the firmware does not mean that you have installed it in your printer. To install the new firmware, you must confirm the installation manually. Control access to the printer Manage printer security with HP Connected When you have set up Web Services, the printer is in unlock mode. In unlock mode, anyone who knows your printer's email address can print to your printer just by sending a file to it. Although HP provides a spam filtering service, you should be careful about giving out your printer's email address, as everything sent to that address may be printed on your printer. If you are the printer administrator, you can manage printer security or change your printer status to lock mode by visiting HP Connected at http://www.hpconnected.com. You can also customize your printer's email address and manage print jobs from there. At your first visit, you will need to create an account at HP Connected using the printer's code. Embedded Web Server security settings From the Embedded Web Server menu, you can click Security and then Administrator password to control access to the printer by specifying an administrator account to control access to the Embedded Web Server and the printer's front panel. The administrator can also define other types of permissions in the control panel through the Access control menu option. In this section, the administrator can create new printer user accounts and assign them specific permissions depending on their role. Other security settings are available under the Security settings menu option, which apply to all users. 20 Chapter 1 Introduction ENWW
