Setting up and using the home screen applications

Accessing the Embedded Web Server

The Embedded Web Server is the printer Web page that lets you view and remotely configure printer settings even when you are not physically near the printer.

1 Obtain the printer IP address:

• From the printer control panel home screen

• From the TCP/IP section in the Network/Ports menu

• By printing a network setup page or menu settings page, and then finding the TCP/IP section

Note: An IP address appears as four sets of numbers separated by periods, such as 123.123.123.123.

2 Open a Web browser, and then type the printer IP address in the address field.

The Embedded Web Server page appears.

Showing or hiding icons on the home screen

1 From the Embedded Web Server, click Settings > General Settings > Home screen customization.

A list of basic printer functions appears.

2 Select the check boxes to specify which icons appear on the printer home screen.

Cleared check box items are hidden.

3 Click Submit.

Activating the home screen applications

For detailed information about configuring and using the home screen applications, contact the place where you bought the printer.

Forms and Favorites

Icon Description

The application helps you simplify and streamline work processes by letting you quickly find and print frequently used online forms directly from the home screen. For example, you can print the latest version of a form exactly when you need it. This eliminates inventories of printed forms that can easily become outdated.

Note: The printer must have permission to access the network folder, FTP site, or Web site where the bookmark is stored. From the computer where the bookmark is stored, use sharing, security, and firewall settings to allow the printer at least a read access. For help, see the documentation that came with your operating system.

Setting up and using the home screen applications

To configure Forms and Favorites, do the following:

1 From the Embedded Web Server, click Settings > Device Solutions > Solutions (eSF) > Forms and Favorites.

2 Define the bookmarks, and then customize the settings.

3 Click Apply.

To use the application, touch Forms and Favorites on the home screen, and then navigate through form categories, or search for forms based on a form number, name, or description.

Scan to Network

Icon Description

The application lets you capture a digital image of a hard-copy document and route it to a shared network folder. Immediately upon delivery, the file is available to anyone permitted to access the folder. You can define up to 30 unique folder destinations.

Notes:

• The printer must have permission to write to the destinations. From the computer where the

destination is specified, use sharing, security, and firewall settings to allow the printer at least a write access. For help, see the documentation that came with your operating system.

• The Scan to Network icon appears only when one or more destinations are defined.

To configure Scan to Network, do the following:

1 From the Embedded Web Server, click Settings > Device Solutions > Solutions (eSF) > Scan to Network.

2 Specify the destinations, and then customize the settings.

3 Click Apply.

To use the application, touch Scan to Network on the home screen, and then follow the printer display prompts.

My MFP

Icon Description

The application lets you customize your touch-screen settings and store those preferences on a flash drive. Each time you want to copy, fax, or scan, insert the flash drive into the USB port of the printer. All your personal preferences are automatically uploaded, including job settings, home screen preferences, and address book.

Note: The icon appears only when a flash drive with My MFP settings is inserted into the USB port of the printer.

To activate My MFP, insert a flash drive into the USB port of the printer, and then follow the instructions on the printer home screen display to run the setup wizard.

To use My MFP, insert the flash drive into the USB port of the printer whenever you want to copy, fax, or scan.

Setting up and using the home screen applications

WS-Scan

Icon Description

The Web Services-Scan application lets you scan documents at the printer, and then send the scanned image to your computer. WS-Scan is a Microsoft application that is similar to Scan to Network, but has the capability of sending the scanned document to a Windows-based application. To learn more about WS-Scan, refer to the Microsoft documentation.

Note: The icon appears on the printer home screen only when there is a Windows 7 or Windows Vista client currently registered with the printer.

Remote Operator Panel

This application shows the printer control panel on your computer screen and lets you interact with the printer control panel, even when you are not physically near the printer. From your computer screen, you can view the printer status, release held print jobs, create bookmarks, and do other print-related tasks you might normally do while standing at the printer.

To activate Remote Operator Panel, do the following:

1 From the Embedded Web Server, click Settings > Device Solutions > Solutions (eSF) > Remote Operator Panel.

2 Select the Enabled check box, and then customize the settings.

3 Click Apply.

To use Remote Operator Panel, from the Embedded Web Server, click Applications > Remote Operator Panel > Launch VNC Applet.

Exporting and importing a configuration using the Embedded Web Server

You can export configuration settings into a text file that can then be imported and used to apply the settings to one or more additional printers.

Exporting a configuration

1 From the Embedded Web Server, click Settings or Configuration.

2 Click Device Solutions > Solutions (eSF), or click Embedded Solutions.

3 From Installed Solutions, click the name of the application you want to configure.

4 Click Configure > Export.

5 Follow the instructions on the computer screen to save the configuration file, and then enter a unique file name or

use the default name.

Note: If a JVM Out of Memory error occurs, then repeat the export until the configuration file is saved.

Setting up and using the home screen applications

Importing a configuration

1 From the Embedded Web Server, click Settings or Configuration.

2 Click Device Solutions > Solutions (eSF), or click Embedded Solutions.

3 From Installed Solutions, click the name of the application you want to configure.

5 Browse to the saved configuration file, and then load or preview it.

Note: If a timeout occurs and a blank screen appears, then refresh the browser, and then click Apply.

Setting up and using the home screen applications

Loading paper and specialty media

This section explains how to use the 250-sheet tray, the manual feeder, an optional 550-sheet tray, and the 650-sheet duo drawer with an integrated multipurpose feeder. It also includes information about paper orientation, setting the Paper Size and Paper Type, and linking and unlinking trays.

Setting the paper size and type

The Paper Size setting for the multipurpose feeder must be set manually from the Paper Size menu. The Paper Type setting must be set manually for all trays that do not contain plain paper.

From the home screen navigate to:

> Paper Menu > Paper Size/Type > select a tray > select the paper size or type > Submit

Configuring Universal paper settings

The Universal Paper Size is a user-defined setting that lets you print on paper sizes that are not preset in the printer menus. Set the Paper Size for the specified tray to Universal when the size you want is not available from the Paper Size menu. Then, specify all of the following Universal size settings for your paper:

• Units of Measure

• Portrait Width

• Portrait Height

Note: The smallest supported Universal size is 76 x 127 mm (3 x 5 in.); the largest size is 216 x 356 mm (8.5 x 14 in.).

1 From the home screen, navigate to:

> Paper Menu > Universal Setup > Units of Measure > select a unit of measure

2 Touch Portrait Width or Portrait Height > select the width or height > Submit.

Loading the standard 250-sheet tray and optional 550-sheet tray

The printer has one standard 250-sheet tray (Tray 1) with an attached manual feeder. The 250-sheet tray, the 650sheet duo drawer, and the optional 550-sheet tray support the same paper sizes and types and are loaded in the same way.

Note: Some printer models may not support the optional 550-sheet tray.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: To reduce the risk of equipment instability, load each paper drawer or tray

separately. Keep all other drawers or trays closed until needed.

1 Pull the tray out.

Note: Do not remove trays while a job is printing or while Busy appears on the display. Doing so may cause a jam.
