Before using the EWS, verify that the printer and the computer are powered on and
connected to the network.
Follow these steps to open the EWS:
1. Launch your Internet browser.
Use Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher or Netscape 4.75 or higher.
2. Enter the printer's IP address in the browser's address box.
Note: If your computer uses a proxy server to access the Internet, you might need
to configure your browser to by-pass the proxy server in order to access
the EWS.
If you do not know the printer IP address, print an HP Report page.
Note: For instructions on using the printer's EWS, see the online help. To open
the online help, click Help under the Other Links heading.
Caution: If you lose your connection, you may need to use the new settings
to reconnect. If the printer loses its network connection, you may need to
reset it to factory defaults and reinstall the software.
5.2.11 Resetting the printer to the factory default settings
Once the printer is configured for a network, its configuration settings are saved in
its memory.
Resetting the printer to its factory default settings will clear all the settings from the
printer's memory for your network. This should only be done as a last resort when
troubleshooting the printer.
Also, resetting the printer to its factory default settings erases the embedded Web
server (EWS) administrator password.
Resetting the printer to its factory default settings may require you to reinstall the
printer software. Additionally, you will also have to reconfigure the printer's security
settings.
Follow these steps to reset the printer to the factory default settings:
1. Verify that the printer is powered on.
2. Press and hold down the Report Page button.
3. While holding down the Report Page button, press the Cancel button three
times.
4. Release the Report Page button.
