A standard Web Browser can be used to manage your machine using the HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer
Protocol). You can get the following information from a machine on your network using a web browser.

 Change network settings such as TCP/IP information
 Configure Secure Function Lock 2.0
 Configure Store Print Log to Network
 Configure Scan to FTP

Note
We recommend Microsoft
Safari 3.0 (or greater) for Macintosh. Please also make sure that JavaScript and Cookies are always
enabled in whichever browser you use. If a different web browser is used, make sure it is compatible with
HTTP 1.0 and HTTP 1.1.
You must use the TCP/IP protocol on your network and have a valid IP address programmed into the print
server and your computer.
