1 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 browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer, Apple Safari, or Mozilla Firefox,
can show output from a Web server.
An embedded Web server resides on a hardware product (such as a printer) in the firmware, rather than
as software that is loaded to a network server.
The advantage of an embedded Web server is that it provides an interface to the product that anyone
with a network-connected computer and a standard Web browser can open and use. No special software
must be installed or configured.
With the HP Embedded Web Server (HP EWS), you can view product status information, change
settings, and manage the product from your computer.
NOTE: In this guide, the terms "product" and "device" are used interchangeably. When products or
devices are discussed in this guide, the information pertains to HP LaserJet printers or multifunction
peripherals (MFPs), or HP Digital Senders. For specific information about the features that your printer,
MFP, or digital sender supports, see the documentation that came with your product.
Features
You can use the HP EWS to view product and network status and to manage printing functions from
your computer, rather than at the product control panel. With the HP EWS, you can perform these tasks:
●
●
●
●
●
●
●

●
Upload firmware updates
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

View and change product configuration, such as tray configurations
View and change network configuration
View and print information pages, such as the Configuration page

●
HP Web Jetadmin and the HP Embedded Web Server
HP Web Jetadminis a Web-based system management tool that you can use with a Web browser. The
HP EWS and HP Web Jetadmin work together to meet all of your product-management needs. You can
use the software to effectively install and manage networked products. Network administrators can
manage networked products remotely, from practically anywhere.
The HP EWS provides a simple, easy-to-use solution for one-to-one product management in
environments that have a limited number of products. To manage environments that have several
products, use HP Web Jetadmin instead. With HP Web Jetadmin you can discover, manage, and
configure multiple products simultaneously.
HP Web Jetadmin is available from HP online support (HP Web Jetadmin
webjetadmin).
System requirements
To use the HP EWS, you must have the following components:
A supported Web browser. Browsers that support embedded Web servers include, but are not
●
limited to, the following:
Konqueror 3.5 or later
◦
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or later
◦
Mozilla Firefox 1.0 or later
◦
Opera 9.0 or later
◦
Safari 1.0 or later
◦
A transmission control protocol/Internet protocol-based (TCP/IP-based) network connection.
●
An HP Jetdirect print server (embedded or enhanced input/output [EIO]) installed in the product.

2 Chapter 1 Overview ENWW
Opening the HP Embedded Web Server
Use the following procedure to open the HP EWS.
NOTE: You cannot view the HP EWS screens from outside a firewall.
1. Open a supported Web browser.
2. In the Address or Go to field, type the IPv4 or IPv6 TCP/IP address, the host name, or the
configured host name that is assigned to the product. See the following examples.
IPv4 TCP/IP address:
●
http://192.168.1.1
IPv6 TCP/IP address:
●
http://[2001:0ba0:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:1234]
Host name:
●
npiXXXXXX
If you do not know the TCP/IP address for the product, find it by using the control-panel menu or by
printing a configuration page. For instructions, see the user guide that came with your product.
Login and logoff
The HP EWS screens are used to view product information and change configuration options. The
screens and settings vary according to how you access the HP EWS: as a general user, an information
technology (IT) administrator, or a service provider. These passwords can be customized by an IT
administrator or a service provider.
In a password-protected HP EWS, 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 EWS tabs (Settings and Networking) and to clear the Color Usage Job Log.
NOTE: For information about changing passwords as an IT administrator, see Security
on page 37. If you are a service provider, see your product service guide.
To log in as an administrator
Use the following procedure to log in to the HP EWS as an administrator.
1. After you open the HP EWS, click the Log In link in the upper-right corner of the screen.
The Enter Network Password dialog box appears. The appearance of the login screen might vary,
depending on your operating system and browser.
2. Type admin for the user name, type your password, and then click OK.
To log off as an administrator
Use the following procedure to log off.
1. Click the Log Off link.
2. To complete the logoff, close the browser.
ENWW Opening the HP Embedded Web Server 3
CAUTION: If you do not close the browser, the connection to the product HP EWS continues to run
and could pose security risks.
Navigating through the HP Embedded Web Server
To navigate through the HP EWS screens, click one of the tabs (such as Information or Settings), and
then click one of the menus on the navigation bar that is located on the left side of the screen.
The following illustration and table provide information about the HP EWS screens.
NOTE: The appearance of the HP EWS screens might differ from the illustrations in this user guide,
depending on the product features and the settings that your IT administrator has established.

Offset Printing used in the USA).
Euroscale. A color theme specifically designed to render CMYK content
according to the Euroscale standard (a CMYK press specification

to compensate for any slight variations that might occur in cartridge
circumference.
DMAX is a density calibration of each print cartridge color at 100%
