What is an embedded Web server?  
A Web server provides an environment in which Web programs can run, in much the same way that  
an operating system, such as Microsoft® Windows®, provides an environment in which programs  
can run on your computer. A Web browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer, Apple Safari, or  
Mozilla, can show output from a Web server.  
An embedded Web server resides on a hardware product (such as a printer) in the firmware, rather  
than as software that is loaded on a network server.  
The advantage of an embedded Web server is that it provides an interface to the product that  
anyone who has a network-connected computer and a standard Web browser can open and use. No  
special software needs to be installed or configured.  
With the HP Embedded Web Server (HP EWS), you can view product status information, change  
settings, and manage the product at your computer.  
NOTE In this guide, the terms "product" and "device" are used interchangeably. When  
products or devices are discussed in this guide, the information pertains to HP LaserJet  
printers or multifunction peripherals (MFPs), or HP Digital Senders. For specific information  
about the features that your printer, MFP, or digital sender supports, see the documentation  
that came with your product.  
Features  
You can use the HP EWS to view product and network status and to manage printing functions from  
your computer, rather than at the product control panel. With the HP EWS, you can perform these  
tasks:  
View control-panel messages and product-status information.  
Determine the remaining life for all supplies and configure specific ordering information for  
supplies.  
Gain access to the product's technical support page.  
Gain access to specific support for recent product events.  
Add or customize links to other Web sites.  
View and change product configuration, such as tray configurations.  
View and change network configuration.

View and print information pages, such as the Configuration page.  
O
Receive alerts about product events, such as when the product is low on supplies, through e-mail.  
Select the language in which to display the HP EWS screens.  
Print to an HP product without having to install the product printer driver.  
Conserve energy by scheduling the product sleep delay so that the product will go into sleep  
mode after a period of time of not being used.  
Schedule wakeup times for each day so that the product has finished initializing and calibrating  
by the time it is to be used.  
Send product configuration and supplies usage information periodically to your service provider.  
Additional features with a permanent storage device  
If you have a permanent storage device installed in your product, such as a hard disk, you can view,  
set up, and retain additional information.  
Alerts. Set up four different destination lists for each user (admin and service), with up to 20  
recipients on each of the four lists. (Without the permanent storage device, each user can send  
alerts to only four e-mail addresses.)  
Other Links. Add up to five additional links to the Web sites of your choice. (Without the extra  
storage, you can add one additional link.)  
A hard disk might be installed in your product, depending on the product model. If your product does  
not have a hard disk, you might be able to order one. For more information, see the user guide that  
came with your product, or go to: www.hp.com/country/us/eng/othercountriesbuy.htm  
HP Web Jetadmin and the HP Embedded Web Server  
HP Web Jetadmin is a Web-based system management tool that you can use with a Web browser.  
The HP EWS and HP Web Jetadmin work together to meet all of your product-management needs.  
You can use the software to install and manage networked products effectively. Network  
administrators can manage networked products remotely, from practically anywhere.  
The HP EWS provides a simple, easy-to-use solution for one-to-one product management in  
environments that have a limited number of products. However, in environments that have several  
products, you might want to use HP Web Jetadmin to manage groups of products. With HP Web  
Jetadmin you can discover, manage, and configure multiple products simultaneously.  
HP Web Jetadmin is available from HP online support (HP Web Jetadmin www.hp.com/go/

The HP EWS has screens that can be used to view product information and change configuration  
options. The screens that appear, and the settings on them, vary according to how you gain access  
to the HP EWS: as a general user, an information technology (IT) administrator, or a service  
provider. These passwords can be customized by an IT administrator or a service provider.  
In a password-protected HP EWS, only the Information tab is available to users who do not log in by  
using the password. If no password has been set (which is the default), all of the tabs are visible.  
If a password has been set, you must log on as an IT administrator or a service provider to gain  
access to the protected HP EWS tabs (Settings and Networking).  
NOTE For information about changing passwords as an IT administrator, see Security. If you  
are a service provider, see your product service guide.

You can use the Print screen to print one file at a time from a product that supports the HP EWS.  
This feature is especially useful if you are a mobile user, because you do not have to install the  
product's printer driver in order to print; you can print anywhere at any time.  
You can print print-ready files, such as documents that have been generated by using a "print to file"  
driver option. Print-ready files commonly have file name extensions such as .PRN (Windows print-  
ready File), .PCL (printer control language), .PS (postscript), .PDF (Adobe Portable Document  
Format), and .TXT (text).  
The following illustration and table describe how to use this screen.

Configuring outgoing e-mail  
You must configure outgoing e-mail if you intend to use the Alerts or AutoSend features.  
1
Gather the following information. (Your organization's network or e-mail administrator typically  
provides the information that is required to configure outgoing mail.)  
The TCP/IP address of the simple mail transfer protocol (SMTP) mail server on your  
network. The EWS uses the SMTP server TCP/IP address to relay e-mail messages to other  
computers.  
The e-mail domain name suffix that is used to address e-mail messages within your  
organization.

Type the domain name in the Domain Name text box.  
Click Apply to save the changes.  
Configuring incoming e-mail  
You should configure incoming e-mail if you intend to request information pages from the product by  
using e-mail messages. For more information, see Sending e-mail commands to the product.  
1
Establish a Post Office Protocol 3 (POP3) mailbox account for the product on a mail server within  
your organization's network.  
Each POP3 account requires a user name and a password. The username combined with the  
product's domain name (which is specified in the outgoing mail configuration) is the e-mail  
address for the product. For example, if the POP3 mailbox account username is "product" and  
the POP3 server is "hp.com", the product's e-mail address is "[email protected]".  
NOTE Each product that is configured for incoming mail must have its own POP3  
mailbox account on your network's e-mail server. The POP3 mailbox accounts are  
typically configured by your organization's network or e-mail administrator.  
CAUTION Make sure that you do not use your personal e-mail account. Doing so could  
cause all of your e-mail to be deleted. You would receive no notification that this deletion  
had taken place.

Alerts  
From the Alerts screen, IT administrators can set up the product to send problem and status alerts  
to anyone through e-mail messages. When this function is configured, alerts are automatically  
triggered about supplies, paper-path status, and other service and advisory information. More than  
one individual can receive alerts, with each person receiving only specific alerts. For example, an  
administrative assistant might be responsible for ordering print cartridges or fixing jams, and could  
receive advanced warning when toner is low or a jam occurs. Similarly, the long-life supplies might  
be handled by an external service provider, who could receive alerts about performing product  
maintenance, loading the front or rear stapler, and similar needs.  
With a permanent storage device installed, such as a hard disk, a user can create up to four different  
destination lists, with up to 20 recipients on each list. (Without the permanent storage device, a user  
can send alerts to only four e-mail addresses.)  
By selecting the Remove Control Panel Supplies Status Messages option (available on the Alerts  
- setup screen that appears when you press the New Destination List button), you can suppress  
the Cartridge low or Cartridge out supplies status messages on the control panel. (This applies  
only to the black print cartridge.) The message is suppressed at the control panel only if one or both  
of these alerts has first been selected to be received.  
The following illustration, table, and procedures describe how to use this screen to edit, test, and  
delete destinations and destination lists.  
NOTE In order for alerts to function, outgoing e-mail must be enabled. To enable outgoing

Using the Alerts screen with a product  
With a permanent storage device installed, you can set up four different lists, with up to 20 recipients  
on each list. Without a permanent storage device, you have room for only four e-mail addresses.  
If a permanent storage device is installed, the Alerts – setup screen that appears when you click  
either Edit or New Destination List looks similar to the following illustration.

-Or-  
To modify an existing destination list, click Edit next to the list that you want to modify.  
The Alerts – setup screen appears.

3
For products that have permanent storage devices installed, type a name in the List Name field,  
such as Service or Supplies. (If you do not have a permanent storage device, continue to step 3.)  
Type the e-mail addresses for people who you want to receive alerts. In large environments,  
system administrators can route e-mail addresses to list servers, URLs, and mobile devices for  
expanded alerts. Add multiple destinations by separating each destination with a comma or  
semicolon.  
4
5
Select the check box for the alerts that you want to be sent with this destination list. (To see all of  
the alerts that are available for the product, click Show All Alerts.)  
Where applicable, set the threshold value for the individual alerts.  
The threshold value for service alerts and for the paper-path alerts is a user-specified number of  
minutes. This is the amount of time that an event will be ignored before an e-mail alert message  
is sent. For example, you might want to set the threshold value for the "Tray Open" alert to 10  
minutes to allow someone to close the tray after loading the tray or clearing a jam.  
6
Under Select Control Panel Messages to Suppress, select messages that you do not want to  
appear on the product control panel. This step applies only to messages that were selected to be  
received as alerts.  
NOTE If the browser does not accept JavaScript, then the check box for message  
suppression will be always enabled. The check-box selection is validated when you  
submit the page by pressing the Apply button. If the alerts corresponding to the alerts  
selected for suppression have not been selected, the Alerts – setup screen is reloaded  
with a warning message, informing you that you must first select the corresponding alerts  
in order to suppress their appearance on the control panel.  
7
Select the attachments that you want to be included with your e-mail alert messages. These  
attachments can include Supplies Status Page, Usage Page, Configuration Page, Event Log  
Page, and XML Data. (Go to the Information tab to see examples of the pages.) The XML Data  
option should be selected if one of the destinations you have chosen to receive alerts is an  
automated computer system. Each item that you select will be attached to the e-mail. For  
example, if you select Usage Page and Event Log Page, you will receive one e-mail message  
with two attachments, one for each selection. If you also select the XML Data option, you will  
receive one e-mail message with three attachments: one attachment for the Usage Page in  
HTML, one for the Event Log in HTML, and a third consisting of instant support information in a  
text file attachment that has an .XML extension.

Sending e-mail commands to the product  
Another method for receiving information pages is by requesting them from the product. When  
outgoing and incoming mail are configured, the product can attach information pages, such as the  
Supplies Status page or the Configuration page, to e-mail messages. You can use this feature to  
solve a problem or check the status of supplies.  
To request information pages by using an e-mail message  
When composing a message to the product, you must format the To, From, and Subject fields  
correctly in your e-mail program.  
1
Make outgoing and incoming e-mail functions available by following the instructions that are  
listed in this chapter. (For more information, see E-mail Server )  
2
From your e-mail program, compose a message to the product by completing the following steps:  
a
In the To field, type the product's e-mail address. The user name combined with the  
product's domain name (which is specified in the outgoing mail configuration) is the e-mail  
address for the product. For example, if the POP3 mailbox account user name is "product"  
and the POP3 server is "hp.com", the product's e-mail address is "[email protected]".  
b
c
Your e-mail program should automatically complete the From field with your return e-mail  
address.  
In the Subject field, type the appropriate text for the format and page that you would like to  
attach. You can request a Configuration page, a Supplies Status page, or an AutoSend  
page. For example, if you would like to attach the Configuration page in .HTML file format,  
type this.configpage?configpage=email&format=html.

Click Send.  
The product checks for new e-mail messages once every 3 minutes. When the product receives the  
e-mail message, it generates a reply and sends the requested information back to the sender's e-  
mail address (as specified in the From field of the original e-mail message).  
NOTE Depending on delays in the network and your organization's mail server, a response  
might take from 1 minute to several hours to arrive in your e-mail program's inbox. If the To,  
From, and Subject fields are not correctly formatted in your e-mail message, the product  
does not send a message in response.  
AutoSend  
Use the AutoSend screen to send product-configuration and supplies-usage information periodically  
to e-mail destinations of your choice, such as service providers. This feature establishes a  
relationship with Hewlett-Packard Company or another service provider to provide you with services  
that include, but are not limited to, print-cartridge replacement, pay-per-page contracts, support  
agreements, and usage tracking. The following illustration, table, and procedure describe how to use  
this screen.  
With a permanent storage device installed, such as a hard disk, you can add up to twenty AutoSend  
destinations. (Without the permanent storage device, you can add one e-mail address.) The following

NOTE You can use the Edit Other Links screen on the Settings tab to add up to five  
customized links to the Web sites of your choice. (With a permanent storage device installed,  
you can add up to five additional links; without the extra storage, you can add one additional  
link.) These links appear throughout the EWS screens, in the Other Links box beneath the  
left navigational bar. For more information, see Edit Other Links.  
The following sections describe each of the links that appear by default in the Other Links box.  
hp instant support  
Hewlett-Packard Company offers hp instant support, an Internet-based support system that collects  
diagnostic information from your product and matches it with the HP information database. At  
hp instant support, you can find intelligent solutions that help you resolve problems quickly and easily.  
How hp instant support works  
Information is gathered from your product and securely transmitted to Hewlett-Packard Company  
when you click hp instant support. The hp instant support Web site reads the product data to  
analyze the product's current status. The Web site creates a customized Web page that appears in  
the browser window and contains easy-to-follow text and visual aids. The hp instant support Web site  
also directs you to additional services that are available for your product.  
Before any of the product data is sent to Hewlett-Packard for analysis, you can view all of the  
information (for example, the serial number, error conditions, and product status) that will be  
forwarded. Hewlett-Packard treats this information as confidential.  
Information you can get from hp instant support  
The hp instant support Web site provides these tools for troubleshooting and for maintenance:  
Firmware and software updates.  
Troubleshooting for recent events that are listed on the Event Log. For example, the product  
might show a jam as the most recent event listed in the event Log. The hp instant support Web  
site detects the event and provides troubleshooting information for the jam.  
Support packs.  
Product documentation, such as user guides and getting started guides.  
Order Supplies  
The Order Supplies link connects you to a Web page that facilitates your online ordering of supplies  
from a reseller of your choice. The supplies that you need are preselected. You can change  
quantities or select additional items. Your items are added to the shopping cart, ready for checkout,  
ensuring that the correct supplies are ordered through your selected reseller.

Product Support  
The Product Support link connects you to a Web page that brings together a comprehensive menu  
of support resources that business people need. From this Web page, you can accomplish these  
tasks and more:  
Find a list of HP products at one site: computers, workstations, servers, storage devices,  
printers, scanners, digital imaging, and mobile devices.  
Obtain technical support. Solve a problem; find information to set up, install, and configure your  
product; discover and use a product; maintain your product; upgrade and migrate your product  
software and driver; and recycle products or dispose of them correctly.  
Gain access to self-solve resources such as FAQs, user documentation, features and  
specifications, and product-compatibility information.  
Collaborate with HP and with your peers through discussion groups, e-mail support, and phone  
support.  
Use task-based navigation to identify the task area that you want to work on and quickly discover  
related topics and tools.  
In addition, you can find these features: hot topics, a subscription center, product rebate offers and  
other announcements, and training and education opportunities.  
My Service Provider and My Service Contract  
The My Service Provider and the My Service Contract links appear only if they have been created  
(and perhaps renamed) by the service provider in the Other Links screen on the Settings tab. The  
link can then be clicked by any user to get information about the service provider and the service  
contract. The information, which can be up to 50 characters long, is stored in the permanent storage  
of the product.  
When these links have been created, the appearance of the Other Links box changes to include the  
new links, as shown in the following illustration.
