HP color laserjet 9500mfp Manuale Utente

■

To access HP EWS the user just needs to know the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
Protocol (TCP/IP) address of the printer. No software needs to be installed on the user's
computer.

■

For most products, HP EWS can only be directly accessed when both printer and computer are
equipped with network cards (or some form of network connection). In these cases, the Web
browser gains access to the product directly through its TCP/IP address. The only Web pages
available are those that are served from the printer.

■

HP Toolbox supports network and direct connect forms of printer connectivity. The browser
directs itself to a locally hosted TCP/IP service that monitors the printing port (be it network or
direct connect). HP Toolbox Web pages are generated through a combination of locally installed
Web content and data that is retrieved from the printer. These Web pages also facilitate printer
control. On some products, HP Toolbox provides a link to the printer's HP EWS page, but these
are not accessed directly through the browser, but rather through the locally hosted TCP/IP
service.

■

HP Toolbox provides the Select Device page, which is used to choose which of the locally
installed devices to manage (if more than one has been installed).

The HP EWS and HP Toolbox utilities are described in detain in the following sections.

The HP EWS is a standard feature for the HP color LaserJet 9500mfp.

The HP EWS provides a simple, easy-to-use solution for one-to-one product management. In offices
that have a limited number of products, remote management of printing devices can be
accomplished without installing any management software, such as HP Web Jetadmin. The only
requirement is that the management console have a supported Web browser.

In environments with a larger number of products, where one-to-one management is impractical, the
HP Embedded Web Server and HP Web Jetadmin work together to provide scalable remote product
management. Use HP Web Jetadmin for consolidated management tasks, when you want to perform
operations on a selected set of products instead of on individual products. For such environments,
HP provides hooks between the HP Embedded Web Server and HP Web Jetadmin so that you can
configure HP Embedded Web Server features on multiple products in one operation. For example,
you can set the security password for the HP Embedded Web Serversimultaneously on a cluster of
products.

For additional information and a copy of the HP Embedded Web Server User Guide, go to:

To view information about the product by using the HP Embedded Web Server, open a supported
Web browser and type in the product transmission control protocol/internet protocol (TCP/IP)
address or host name. To find the TCP/IP address, look for IP Address on the enhanced input/
output (EIO) Jetdirect page, in the TCP/IP section. To find the host name of the product, look for
Host Name in the TCP/IP section.  

You also can view information about an installed HP Jetdirect print server by clicking the Networking
tab in the HP Embedded Web Server window.

To print a copy of the EIO Jetdirect page from the control-panel display, follow these steps:  

Press the 

SELECT

 button (the one with the check mark) to open the menus.

Press the up and down buttons to scroll to INFORMATION, and then press the 

SELECT

 button.
