Use the Embedded Web Server
When the HP Scanjet Enterprise 8500 fn1 is connected to a network, you can use the Embedded Web Server to
view status information, change settings, and manage the product from your computer.
To use the Embedded Web Server, you must have Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 or later or Netscape 6.2 or
later for Windows, Mac OS, and Linux (Netscape only). Netscape Navigator 4.7 is required for HP-UX 10 and HP-
UX 11.
The Embedded Web Server works when the product is connected to an IP-based network. You do not have to
have Internet access to open and use the Embedded Web Server.
When the product is connected to the network, the Embedded Web Server is automatically available.
NOTE: Some Embedded Web Server options are only available to the network administrator, and some
settings might require a password.
You can use the Embedded Web Server without being connected to the Internet; however, some features will
not be available.
