Setting Up the Printer Web Page

Setting Up the Printer Web Page

Setting up the printer web page to run on your network involves two basic

steps:

 Determining the name or address of your printer

 Setting up the “no proxy” preferences in your browser software

Determining the Printer Name

The printer web page can be accessed in two ways:

" The printer names can also be determined via WINS if the network

supports it.

 Through the assigned name of the printer—This name comes from the IP

host table (the filename is hosts) on the computer system and is usually

assigned by the system administrator (for example, magicolor 2550). It

may be more convenient for you to use the printer name than the IP

address.

Location of the Host Table on the PC

z Windows Server 2003/XP \windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

z Windows Me/98SE \windows\hosts

z Windows 2000/NT4.0 \winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

 Through the printer’s IP address—The IP address of your printer is a

unique number and, therefore, may be the preferred identification to enter,

especially if you have more printers active in your network. The printer’s

IP address is listed on the configuration page.

Setting Up Your Browser Software

Since your printer resides on your intranet and is not accessible beyond the

firewall of your network, you must set up the proper “preferences” in your

browser software. Your printer name or IP address must be added to the “no

proxy” list in the preferences dialog box of the browser.

" You need to do this procedure only once.

The sample screens below may be different from yours depending on soft-

ware versions and operating systems in use.
