The Embedded Web Server
The Embedded Web Server is the administration and configuration software that is installed in the
printer. It allows you to configure and administer the printer from a Web browser.
The Embedded Web Server requires:
•A TCP/IP connection between the printer and the network in Windows, Macintosh, UNIX, or
Linux environments.
• TCP/IP and HTTP enabled in the printer.
• A network-connected computer with a Web browser that supports JavaScript.
Accessing the Embedded Web Server
At your computer, open a Web browser. In the address field, type the IP address of the printer, then press
Enter or Return.
Finding the IP Address of Your Printer
To install the print driver for a network-connected printer, you need the IP address of your printer.
You also need the IP address to access the settings of your printer through the Embedded Web Server.
You can view the IP address of your printer on the control panel or on the Configuration Report.
Note: Wait until the printer has been on for 2 minutes to view the TCP/IP address. If the TCP/IP address
is 0.0.0.0, or begins with 169, it indicates a network connectivity issue.
To view the IP address of the printer on the control panel:
1. At the printer control panel, press the Home button.
2. Touch Device > About.
3. Record the IP address from the display.
4. To return to the Home screen, press the Home button.

Installation and Setup Overview
Before you print, ensure that your computer and the printer are plugged in, powered on, and connected.
Configure the initial settings of the printer, then install the print driver software and utilities on
your computer.
You can connect to your printer directly from your computer using USB, or connect to a network using
an Ethernet cable or wireless connection. Hardware and cabling requirements vary for the different
connection methods. Routers, network hubs and switches, modems, Ethernet cables, and USB cables are
not included with your printer and are purchased separately. Xerox recommends an Ethernet connection
because it is typically faster than a USB connection, and it provides access to the Embedded Web Server.
packaged with your printer.
For more information, refer to the
System Administrator Guide
at www.xerox.com/office/VLC400docs.
Selecting a Location for the Printer
1. Select a dust-free area with temperatures from 10–32°C (50–90°F), and relative humidity 10–85%.
Note: Sudden temperature fluctuations can affect print quality. Rapid heating of a cold room can
cause condensation inside the printer, directly interfering with image transfer.
2. Place the printer on a level, solid, non-vibrating surface with adequate strength to hold the weight
of the printer. The printer must be horizontal with all four feet in solid contact with the surface.
To find the weight for your printer configuration, refer to Weights and Dimension on page 172,
on page 172. Select a location with adequate clearance to access supplies and to provide proper
ventilation. To find the clearance requirements for your printer, refer to Clearance Requirements
on page 173.
3. After positioning the printer, you are ready to connect it to the power source and computer
or network.

Selecting a Connection Method
You can connect the printer to your computer using a USB cable, Ethernet cable, or wireless connection.
The method that you select depends on how your computer is connected to the network. A USB
connection is a direct connection and is the easiest to set up. An Ethernet connection is used to connect
to a network. If you are using a network connection, it is important to understand how your computer is
connected to the network.
Note: Hardware and cabling requirements vary for the different connection methods. Routers, network
hubs, network switches, modems, Ethernet cables, and USB cables are not included with your printer and
must be purchased separately.
•USB: If you connect the printer to one computer and do not have a network, use a USB connection.
A USB connection offers fast data speeds, but typically not as fast as a network connection.
Note: To access the Embedded Web Server, a network connection is required.
•Network: If your computer is connected to an office network or home network, use an Ethernet
cable to connect the printer to the network. You cannot connect the printer directly to the computer.
A conncetion through a router or network switch is required. An Ethernet network can be used for
one or more computers and supports many printers and systems simultaneously. An Ethernet
connection is typically faster than USB and allows you direct access to the settings of the printer
using the Embedded Web Server.
•Wireless Network: If your environment includes a wireless router or wireless access point, you can
connect the printer to the network with a wireless connection. A wireless network connection
provides the same access and services as a wired connection provides. A wireless network
connection is typically faster than USB and allows direct access to the settings of the printer
using the Embedded Web Server.

Paper and Media
Paper That Can Damage Your Printer
Some paper and other media types can cause poor output quality, increased paper jams, or damage
your printer. Do not use the following:
• Rough or porous paper
• Inkjet paper
• Non-laser glossy or coated paper
• Paper that has been photocopied
• Paper that has been folded or wrinkled
• Paper with cutouts or perforations
• Stapled paper
• Envelopes with windows, metal clasps, side seams, or adhesives with release strips
• Padded envelopes
• Plastic media
• Transparencies
CAUTION: The Xerox Warranty, Service Agreement, or Xerox Total Satisfaction Guarantee
does not cover damage caused by using unsupported paper or specialty media. The Xerox
Total Satisfaction Guarantee is available in the United States and Canada. Coverage could
vary outside these areas. Please contact your local representative for details.
Paper Storage Guidelines
Storing your paper and other media properly contributes to optimum print quality.
•Store paper in dark, cool, relatively dry locations. Most paper is susceptible to damage from
ultraviolet and visible light. Ultraviolet light, from the sun and fluorescent bulbs, is particularly
damaging to paper.
• Reduce the exposure of paper to strong lights for long periods of time.
• Maintain constant temperatures and relative humidity.
• Avoid storing paper in attics, kitchens, garages, or basements. These spaces are more likely to
collect moisture.
• Store paper flat, either on pallets, cartons, shelves, or in cabinets.
• Avoid food or drinks in the area where paper is stored or handled.
• Do not open sealed packages of paper until you are ready to load them into the printer. Leave
stored paper in the original packaging. The paper wrapper protects the paper from moisture loss
or gain.
•Some special media is packaged inside resealable plastic bags. Store the media inside the bag until
you are ready to use it. Keep unused media in the bag and reseal it for protection.
