Requirements
Compatible Web Browsers
To access the embedded Web server, you must use a compatible Web browser. In general, the
embedded Web server can be used with Web browsers that support HTML 4.01 and cascading style
sheets.
Hewlett-Packard tests a number of current and older browsers using a variety of systems. In general,
we recommend using the following browsers:
●
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or greater
●
Netscape Navigator 6.0 or greater
●
Mozilla Firefox 1.x or greater
Browser Exceptions
Due to known problems experienced during testing, we recommend that you do not use the following
browsers:
●
Netscape Navigator 6.2.x with SSL
Supported HP Web Jetadmin Version
HP Web Jetadmin is a browser-based, enterprise management tool for network devices. It is available
from HP online support at the following URL:
http://www.hp.com/go/webjetadmin
To make use of improved security features, HP Web Jetadmin version 8.0 or greater is recommended
for operation with the HP Jetdirect embedded Web server. Using HP Web Jetadmin, you can enable
the IPv4/IPv6 SNMP v3 agent and seamlessly create an SNMP v3 account on the print server.
NOTE: HP Web Jetadmin 8.0 does not support SNMP configuration over IPv6 protocols.
However, Jetdirect MIB configuration objects (such as IPv6 and IPsec objects) may be viewed
over IPv4.
Currently, browser support between HP Web Jetadmin and the embedded Web server may differ. For
supported browsers with HP Web Jetadmin, visit

Viewing the Embedded Web Server
Before you can use the embedded Web server, the HP Jetdirect print server must be configured with
an IP address.
Using IPv6 protocols, IPv6 addresses are typically configured automatically on the print server, although
manual configuration is available. For basic information on IPv6 addresses, see
TCP/IP Configuration
on page 17.
Using IPv4 protocols, there are many ways to configure an IPv4 address on the print server. For
example, you can automatically configure IP parameters over the network using BOOTP (Bootstrap
Protocol) or DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) each time the print server is turned on. Or,
you can manually configure IP parameters using the printer's control panel (for selected printers), Telnet,
