printer. From any computer, you can use an ordinary Web browser to contact your
printer's Embedded Web Server (see How do I access the Embedded Web Server?).
With the Embedded Web Server, you can:
● Submit jobs to the printer in various file formats (HP-GL/2, HP-RTL, PostScript,
PDF, JPEG, TIFF, CALS G4) without the need of a driver nor an application: see
How do I submit a job?.
Note PostScript and PDF formats can be used with PostScript printers
only.

queue?.
● View the status of the ink cartridges, the printheads, the printhead cleaners, and
the paper: see How do I check the status of the ink system?.
