• Check the status of the printer supplies.

• Configure supply notifications.

To access the Embedded Web Server for your printer:

1 Obtain the printer IP address:

then finding the TCP/IP section

Notes:

– An IP address appears as four sets of numbers separated

by periods, such as 123.123.123.123.
