Installing the network software
After you have successfully connected the HP LaserJet 3300 series product to your network, you
should install or reinstall the software that came with the product. The software must be installed
to take full advantage of the product features and to enable networked printing from each PC.
Note If you are using a previously purchased HP Jetdirect print server, do not install the software that
came with it. Use the software that came with your HP LaserJet 3300 series product.
See the getting started guide that came with the product for complete instructions on installing the
software.
Using the embedded web server
Each HP Jetdirect 310x print server contains an embedded web server that you can access
through a compatible web browser on an intranet. The embedded web server provides access to
configuration and management pages for the print server and the attached printer. The networking
pages provide access to status and configuration information on the HP Jetdirect 310x print
server.
You can use the embedded web server to perform the following tasks:
● Monitor the status of the printer and the print server
● Make configuration changes to the print server to customize it for your network
● Link to HP’s web site
● Scan images over the network without installing the HP LaserJet 3300 series product software
Prerequisites
Computers with the TCP/IP protocol installed can use the embedded web server to monitor and
configure the printers networked with an HP Jetdirect print server. Use the installation program on
the product CD-ROM to set this up.
Before you can use the embedded web server, you must configure an IP address for the HP
Jetdirect print server. Use the installation program on the product CD-ROM to configure the IP
address.
Optionally, you can use BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) or DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol) to automatically configure the IP address over the network each time the print server is
turned on.

● Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0, 5.01, or 5.5
● Netscape Navigator 4.6x, 4.7x, 6.0, or 6.1
