information
This chapter covers basic administrative support tasks. For more advanced system support tasks, see the Networking
Guide on the Software and Documentation CD and the Embedded Web Server Administrator's Guide on the Lexmark
Web site at www.lexmark.com.
Using the Embedded Web Server
If the printer is installed on a network, then the Embedded Web Server is available for a range of functions, including:
• Viewing a virtual display of the printer control panel
• Checking the status of the printer supplies
• Configuring printer settings
• Configuring network settings
• Viewing reports
To access the Embedded Web Server, type the printer IP address into the address field of your Web browser.
Notes:
• If you do not know the IP address of the printer, then print a network setup page and locate the IP address in
the TCP/IP section.
• For more information, see the Networking Guide on the Software and Documentation CD and the Embedded Web
Server Administrator's Guide on the Lexmark Web site at www.lexmark.com/publications.
Checking the device status
From the Device Status page of the Embedded Web Server, it is possible to see paper tray settings, the level of toner
in the toner cartridge, the percentage of life remaining in the photoconductor kit, and capacity measurements of
certain printer parts. To view the device status:
1 Type the printer IP address in the address field of your Web browser.
Note: If you do not know the IP address of the printer, then print a network setup page and locate the IP address
in the TCP/IP section.
2 Click Device Status.
Setting up e-mail alerts
You can have the printer send you an e-mail when the supplies are getting low or when the paper needs to be
changed, added, or unjammed.
