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.
To install the print driver for a network-connected printer, it is often necessary to know the IP address
of your printer. Also, the IP address is used 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: To view the TCP/IP address on the control panel, wait until the printer has been on for 2
minutes. If the TCP/IP address is 0.0.0.0, or begins with 169, it indicates a network connectivity
issue. However, if Wi-Fi is set as the primary Ethernet connection, 0.0.0.0 is displayed as the IP
address for the printer.
Your device includes a self-signed HTTPS certificate. The device generates the certificate
automatically during device installation. The HTTPS certificate is used to encrypt communications
between your computer and the Xerox device.
Note:
•The Embedded Web Server page for your Xerox device can display an error message that
the security certificate is not trusted. This configuration does not lessen the security of the
communications between your computer and the Xerox device.
•To eliminate the connection warning in your Web browser, you can replace the self-signed
certificate with a signed certificate from a Certificate Authority. For information on
obtaining a certificate from a Certificate Authority, contact your Internet Service Provider.
For information on obtaining, installing, and enabling certificates, refer to the System AdministratorGuide at www.xerox.com/office/VLC400docs.
From the Embedded Web Server, you can download and save a copy of the Configuration Report to
your computer hard drive. Use Configuration Reports from multiple devices to compare software
versions, configurations, and compliance information.
To download a copy of the Configuration Report from the Embedded Web Server:
1.At your computer, open a Web browser. In the address field, type the IP address of the printer,
then press Enter or Return.

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 must be 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.

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 the paper 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.

Follow the guidelines for printing on glossy cardstock:
•Do not open sealed packages of glossy cardstock until you are ready to load the paper into the
printer.
•Leave glossy cardstock in the original wrapper, and leave the packages in the shipping carton until
ready to use.
•Remove all other paper from the tray before loading glossy cardstock.
•Load only the amount of glossy cardstock you are planning to use. When you are finished
printing, remove the glossy cardstock in the tray . Replace unused cardstock in the original
wrapper and seal.
•Rotate stock frequently. Long periods of storage in extreme conditions can cause glossy cardstock
to curl and jam in the printer.
•In the print driver software, select the desired glossy cardstock type or select the tray loaded with
the desired paper.
