Embedded Web server
This printer is equipped with an embedded Web server, which allows access to information about printer
and network activities. A Web server provides an environment in which web programs may run, much

run on your computer. The output from these programs can then be displayed by a Web browser, such
as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator.

The advantage of an embedded Web server is that it provides an interface to the printer that anyone
can access with a network-connected computer or a standard Web browser. There is no special software
to install or configure. For more information about the HP embedded Web server, see the Embedded
Web Server User Guide. You can find this guide on the CD-ROM included with the printer.
