Overview

What is an embedded Web server?

A Web server provides an environment in which Web programs can run, in much the same way that an operating system, such as Microsoft® Windows®, provides an environment in which programs can run on your computer . A Web brow ser, such as Micro soft In ternet Exp lorer , Ap ple Safari, Mozilla, or Firefox can show output from a Web server.

An embedded Web server (EWS) resides on a hardware product (such as a pr inter) or in the 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 product that anyone who has a network-connected computer and a standard Web browser can open and use. No special software needs to be installed or configured.

With the HP Embedded Web Server, you can view product status information, change settings, and manage the product at your computer.

Note In this guide, the terms “product” and “device” are used interchangeably. When products or

devices are discussed in this guide, the informatio n pe r tain s to HP La se rJe t pr int er s, un le ss otherwise noted. For specific information about the features that your printer supports, see the documentation that came with your product.

ENWW What is an embedded Web server? 1

Features

You can use the HP Embedded Web Server to view product and network status and to mana ge printing functions from your computer, rather than at the product control panel. With the HP Embedded Web Server, you can perform these tasks:

● View control-panel messages and product-status information.

● Determine the remaining life for all supplies and configure specific ordering information for

supplies.

● Gain access to the product's technical support page.

● Gain access to specific support for recent product events.

● Add or customize links to other Web sites.

● View and change product configuration, such as tray configurations.

● View and change network configuration.

● View and print information pages, such as the Configuration page.

● Receive alerts about product events, such as when the product is low on supplies, through

e-mail.

● Select the language in which to display the HP Embedded Web Server screens.

● Print to an HP product without having to install the product printer driver.

● Conserve energy by scheduling the product sleep delay so that the product will go into sleep

mode after a period of time of not being used.

● Schedule wakeup times for each day so that the product has finished initializing and

calibrating by the time it is to be used.

● Send product configuration and supplies usage information periodically to your service

provider.

Additional features with a permanent storage device

If you have a permanent storage device installed in your product, such as a hard disk, you can view, set up, and retain additional information.

● Alerts. Set up four different destination lists, with up to 20 recipients on each of the four lists.

(Without the permanent storage device, you can send alerts to only four e-mail addresses.)

● Other Links. Add up to five additional links to the Web sites of your choice. (Without the

extra storage, you can add one additional link.)

A hard disk might be installed in your product, depending on the product model. If your product does not have a hard disk, you might be able to order one. For more information, see the user guide that came with your product, or go to:

http://www.hp.com/country/us/eng/othercountriesbuy.htm

HP Web Jetadmin and the HP Embedded Web Server

HP Web Jetadmin is a Web-based system management tool that you can use with a Web browser. The HP Embedded Web Server and HP Web Jetadmin work together to meet all of your product-management needs. You can use the software to install and manage networked products effectively. Network administrators can manage networked products remotely, from practically anywhere.

The HP Embedded Web Server provides a simple, easy-to-use solution for one-to-one product management in environments that have a limited number of prod ucts. However, in environments that have several products, you might want to use HP Web Jetadmin to manage groups of products. With HP Web Jetadmin you can discover, manage, and configure multiple products simultaneously.

HP Web Jetadmin is available from HP online support (http://www.hp.com/go/webjetadmin

2 Overview ENWW

System requirements

In order to use the HP Embedded Web Server, you must have the following components:

● One of the following Web browsers in this list (but not limited to) installed on your computer:

● A supported Web browser. EWS-supported Web browsers include (but are not limited to) the

following:

• Konqueror 3.0 or later

• Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or later

• Mozilla 1.0 (and Mozilla derivatives)

• Firefox 1.0 or later

• Netscape Navigator 6.2 or later

• Opera 7.0 or later

• Safari 1.0 or later

● A transmission control protocol/Internet protocol- (TCP/IP-) based network connection.

● An HP Jetdirect print server (embedded or enhanced input/output [EIO]) installed in the

product.

Opening the HP Embedded Web Server

Use the following procedure to open the HP Embedded Web Server.

Note You cannot view the HP Embedded Web Server screens from outside of a firewall.

1 Open a supported Web browser. 2 In the Address or Go to field, type the Internet protocol (IP) address that is assigned to the

product (for example, http://192.168.1.1) or the host name (for example, npi[XXXXXX] or a configured host name such as http://www.[your_server].com).

If you do not know the IP address for the product, you can find it on the Configuration page. Se e the user guide that came with your product to see how to print a Configuration page at the control panel.

Login and logoff

The HP Embedded Web Server (EWS) has screens that can be used to view product information and change configuration options. The screens that appear, and the settings on them, vary according to how you gain access to the EWS: as a genera l user, an infor mation tech nology (I T) administrator, or a service provider. These passwords can be customized by an IT administra tor or a service provider.

In a password-protected HP Embedded Web Server, only the Information tab is available to users who do not log in by using the password. If no password has been set (which is the default), all of the tabs are visible.

If a password has been set, you must log on as an IT administrator or a service provider to gain access to the protected HP Embedded Web Server tabs (Settings and Networking).

Note For information about changing passwords as an IT admi nistr ator , see “Security” on page 33. If

you are a service provider, see your product service guide.

product” on page 29.

Configure incoming e-mail if you intend to request information pages from the product by using e-mail messages. For more information, see

“Sending e-mail commands to the product” on page 29.

Configuring outgoing e-mail

You must configure outgoing e-mail if you intend to use the Alerts or AutoSend features. 1 Gather the following information. (Your organization’s network or e-mail administrator

typically provides the information that is required to configure outgoing mail.)

• The IP address of the simple mail transfer protocol (SMTP) mail server on your network. The EWS uses the SMTP server IP address to relay e-mail messages to other computers.

• The e-mail domain name suffix that is used to address e-mail messages within your organization.

2 Select the Enable Outgoing E-mail check box. 3 Type the SMTP server IP address in the SMTP Server text box. 4 Type the domain name, and then click Apply to save the changes.

Configuring incoming e-mail

You should configure incoming e-mail if you intend to request information pages from the product by using e-mail messages. For more information, see “Sending e-mail commands to the

product” on page 29.

1 Establish a Post Office Protocol 3 (POP3) mailbox account for the product on a mail server

within your organization’s network. Each POP3 account requires a username and a password. The username combined with

the product’s domain name (which is specified in the outgoing mail configuration) is the e-mail address for the product. For example, if the POP3 mailbox account username is “product” and the POP3 server is “hp.com”, the product’s e-mail address is “product@hp.com”.

Note Each product that is configured for incoming mail must have its own POP3 mailbox account on

your network’s e-mail server. The POP3 mailbox accounts are typically configured by your organization’s network or e-mail

administrator.

2 Select the Enable Incoming E-mail check box. 3 Type the IP address of the POP3 mail server in the POP3 Server text box. 4 Type username and password for the product’s mailbox account, and then click Apply to

save the changes.

22 Configuring th e pr oduct from the Settings screens ENWW

Alerts

From the Alerts screen, IT administrators can set up the product to send problem and status alerts to anyone through e-mail messages. When this function is configured, alerts are automatically triggered about supplies and paper-path status, as well as for service and advisory information. More than one individual can receive alerts, with each person receiving only specific alerts. For example, an administrative assistant might be responsible for ordering toner or fixing jams, and could receive advanced warning when toner i s low or a jam occurs. Similar ly, the longlife supplies might be handled by an external service provider, who could receive alerts about performing product maintenance, loading the front or rear stapler, and similar needs.

With a permanent storage device installed, such as a hard disk, you can create up to four different destination lists, with up to 20 recipients on each list. (Without the permanent storage device, you can send alerts to only four e-mail addresses.) The following example is for a product that has a permanent storage device installed. If a perma nent storage device is installed, you can edit, test, and delete destinations and destination lists.

The following illustration, table, and procedures describe how to use this screen.

Note In order for alerts to function, outgoing e-mail must be enabled. To enable outgoing mail, see

“Configuring outgoing e-mail” on page 22.

● “To configure alerts” on page 24

● “To test the configuration of a destination list” on page 28

● “To delete destinations and destination lists” on page 29

To configure alerts

With a permanent storage device installed, you can set up four different lists, with up to 20 recipients on each list. Without a permanent storage device, you have room for only four e-mail addresses.

1 Do one of the following:

• To create a new destination list, click New Destination List.

-Or-

• To modify an existing destination list, click Edit next to the list that you want to modify.

24 Configuring th e pr oduct from the Settings screens ENWW

If a permanent storage device is installed, the screen that appears looks similar to the following illustration.

2 For products that have permanent storage devices installed, type a name in the List Name

field, such as Service or Supplies. (If you do not have a perma nent storag e device, continu e to step 3.)

3 Type the e-mail addresses for people who you want to receive alerts. In lar ge environments,

system administrators can route e-mail addresses to list servers, uniform resource locators (URLs), and mobile devices for expanded alerts. Add multiple destinations by separating each destination with a comma or semicolon.

4 Select the check box for the alerts that you want to be sent with this destination list. (To see

all of the alerts that are available for the product, click Show All Alerts.)

5 Where applicable, set the threshold value for the individual alerts.

The threshold value for service alerts and for the paper-path alerts is a user-specified number of minutes. This is the amount of time that an event will be ignored before an e-mail alert message is sent. For example, you might want to set the threshold value for the “Tray Open” alert to 10 minutes to allow someone to close the tray after loading the tray or clearin g a jam.

6 Select the attachments that you want to be included with your e-mail alert messages. These

attachments can include Supplies Status Page, Usage Pag e, Configuration Page, Event Log Page, and XML Data. (Go to the Information tab to see examples of the pages.) The XML Data option should be selected if one of the destinations you have chosen to receive alerts is an automated computer system. Each item that you select will be attached to the e-mail. For example, if you select Usage Page and Event Log Page, you will receive one e-mail message with two attachments, one for each selection. If you also select the XML Data option, you will receive one e-mail message with three attachments—one attachment for the Usage Page in HTML, one for the Event Log in HTML, and a third consisting of instant support information in a text file attachment that has an .XML extension.

7 Click Apply to save the information. 8 Repeat steps 1 through 7 for each additional list or destination.

Note To test the configuration of a destination list, see “To test th e co nfig u ra tio n of a dest ina tio n list”

on page 28.

ENWW Alerts 27

To test the configuration of a destination list

Use the following procedure to test the destination list configuration. 1 Click the Test button next to the destination list that you want to test.

The following window appears. (This illustration shows the screen from a system that has a permanent storage device installed. If no permanent storage device is installed, only one destination can be tested from this window.)

2 If you have a permanent storage device installed, select the destinations that you want to

test.

3 The return address is the product’s e-mail address. Type your e-mail address in the Return

Address box if you would like to receive messages about any error s that are generated from

the test alert (for example, to be notified of an incorrect destination address).

4 If applicable, type additional information that you would like to a ppear at the beginning of the

e-mail alert message in the Your Notes (optional) text field.

5 Click OK.

To delete destinations and destination lists

You can delete a destination or destination list by clicking the Delete button next to the destination or destination list that you want to delete. Click OK to confirm the deletion.

Sending e-mail commands to the product

Another method for receiving information pages is by requesting them from the product. When outgoing and incoming mail are configured, the product can attach information pages, such as the Supplies Status page or the Configuration page, to e-mail messages. You can use this feature to solve a problem or check the status of supplies.

To request information pages by using an e-mail message

When composing a message to the product, you must format the To, From, and Subject fields correctly in your e-mail program.

1 Make outgoing and incoming e-mail functions available by following the instructions that are

listed in this chapter. (For more information, see “E-mail Server” on page 21.)

2 From your e-mail program, compose a message to the product by completing the following

steps: a In the To field, type the product’s e-mail addr ess . Th e us er na m e co mb in ed with th e

product’s domain name (which is specified in the outgoing mail configuration) is the e-mail address for the product. For example, if the POP3 mailbox account username is “product” and the POP3 server is “hp.com”, the product’s e-mail address is “product@hp.com”.

b Your e-mail program should automatically complete the From field with your return

e-mail address.

c In the Subject field, type the appropriate text for the format and page that you would like

to attach. You can request a Configuration page, a Supplies Status page, or an AutoSend page. For example, if you would like to attach the Configuration page in .HTML file format, type “this.configpage?configpage=email&format=html”.

Page HTML format XML format

Configuration page this.configpage?configPage

=email&format=html

Supplies Status page this.configpage?suppliesPage

=email&format=html

AutoSend page not applicable this.configpage?autosend

this.configpage?configPage =email&format=xml

this.configpage?suppliesPage =email&format=xml

=email&format=xml

3 Click Send. The product checks for new e-mail messages once every 3 minutes. When the product receives

the e-mail message, it generates a reply and sends the requested information back to the sender's e-mail address (as specified in the From field of the original e-mail message).

ENWW Alerts 29

Note Depending on delays in the network and your organization’s mail server, a resp onse mi ght take

from 1 minute to several hours to arrive in your e-mail program’s Inbox. If the To, From, and Subject fields are not correctly formatted in your e-ma il message, the product

does not send a message in response.
