HP LaserJet Enterprise M552 - Remote Admin; Required software and network connection

Remote Admin
The Remote Admin feature allows remote access to the printer Pre-boot menu (BIOS environment). The
printer functions as a telnet server, which uses the telnet networking protocol to transmit text data. Any
computer (with telnet installed and enabled) can function as the telnet client to remotely display and interact
with the Pre-boot menu.
IMPORTANT: While the Remote Admin function allows remote access to the Pre-boot menu, for security
reasons, the Remote Admin connection must be initiated by a person that is physically present at the printer.
This section describes the following Remote Admin items.

Required software and network connection
Before using the Remote Admin feature, make sure that the telnet network protocol is installed, and enabled,
on the remote telnet client computer.
NOTE: This section describes enabling and conguring the telnet feature for computers using a Windows®
operating system.
HP recommends that the telnet client computer be a Windows-based system, however, there are other
operating systems that support the telnet network protocol. For information about enabling and conguring
the telnet network protocol for other operating systems, see the owner's manual for that operating system.
