About Web Config
Web Config is a browser-based application you can use to configure a product's settings. Basic and
advanced setting pages are available.
Note: Before you can configure system administration settings, connect the product to a network. See
the product's Start Here sheet and User's Guide for instructions.
You can lock the settings you select by setting up an administrator password for your product. See the
product's User's Guide for instructions.
Parent topic: Using Web Config Network Configuration Software
Accessing Web Config
You can access Web Config from your browser using HTTP or HTTPS.
By default, you access Web Config for the first time using HTTP. If you continue to use HTTP, Web
Config does not display all available menus.
1. Print a network status sheet for your product and identify the product IP address. See the product's
User's Guide for instructions.
2. Start your web browser and make sure JavaScript is enabled.
3. Type the product IP address into the browser as follows, depending on the protocol you are using:
• IPv4: http://product IP address
8
• IPv6: http://[product IP address]/
The Basic Settings page appears:
4. To use HTTPS, configure the address to use HTTPS in your browser.
A message warning about the self-signed certificate appears.
To access Web Config after configuring the address to use HTTPS, enter https:// before the product IP
address, shown in step 3.
Note: If the product name is registered with the DNS server, you can use the product name instead of
the product IP address to access Web Config.

to each user. This requires users to log into the product control panel with their user name and password
before they can use control panel features.
With Windows, you can also restrict printing and scanning from the product software. This requires users
to log into the printing or scanning software, and allows the software to authenticate the users before
printing or scanning proceeds. For instructions on setting up software restrictions, see the help utility in
the printing or scanning software.

checkbox for each function you want to restrict access to.
10. Click Apply.
Note: When you edit a completed user account, you see a Delete option. Click it to delete a user, if
necessary.
Note: You can import and export a list of user features using EpsonNet Config. See the help utility in the
software for instructions.
