Running Web Cong on a Web Browser
1.
Launch a Web browser from a computer or smart device, and then enter the scanner's IP address.
Format:
IPv4: http://the scanner's IP address/
IPv6: http://[the scanner's IP address]/
Examples:
IPv4: http://192.168.100.201/
IPv6: http://[2001:db8::1000:1]/
Note:
❏ Since the scanner uses a self-signed certicate when accessing HTTPS, a warning is displayed on the browser when
you start Web Cong; this does not indicate a problem and can be safely ignored.
❏ If the administrator password has not been set when accessing Web Cong, you need to set a user name and
password.
c
Important:
Do not forget the user name and the password. If you forget them, you will need to contact Epson service
support.
2.
If you want to change the scanner settings, you need to login as an administrator.
Click Administrator Login at the top-right of the screen. Enter the User Name and Current password, and
then click OK.
Note:
If Administrator Logout is displayed at the top-right of the screen, you have already logged-on as an administrator.
