Using the Embedded Web Server

Note: This feature is available only in network printers or printers

connected to print servers.

If the printer is installed on a network, then you can use the Embedded

Web Server to do the following:

•View the virtual display of the printer control panel.

•Check the status of the printer supplies.

•Configure supply notifications.

•Configure printer settings.

•Configure network settings.

•View reports.

To access the Embedded Web Server for your printer:

1Obtain the printer IP address:

•From the TCP/IP section in the Network/Ports menu

•By printing a network setup page or menu settings page, and

then finding the TCP/IP section

Notes:

–An IP address appears as four sets of numbers separated

by periods, such as 123.123.123.123.

–If you are using a proxy server, then temporarily disable

it to load the Web page correctly.

2Open a Web browser, and then type the printer IP address in the

address field.

3Press Enter.

The Embedded Web Server page appears.

Loading paper and specialty

media

Setting the paper size and type

1From the printer control panel, navigate to:

> Paper Menu > > Paper Size/Type >

2Press the arrow buttons until Tray [x] Size or

Tray [x] Type appears, and then press .

3Select a setting, and then press .

Configuring Universal paper settings

The Universal paper size is a user‑defined setting that lets you print on

paper sizes that are not preset in the printer menus.

Notes:

•The smallest supported Universal size is 76 x 127 mm

(3 x 5 inches) and is loaded only in the multipurpose feeder and

manual feeder.

•The largest supported Universal size is 215.9 x 359.9 mm

(8.5 x 14.17 inches) and is loaded only in the multipurpose

feeder and manual feeder.

1From the printer control panel, navigate to:

> Paper Menu > > Universal Setup

2Press the arrow buttons until Units of Measure, Portrait

Height, or Portrait Width appears, and then press .

3Select a setting, and then press .

Loading the 250‑sheet tray

The printer has one standard 250‑sheet tray (Tray 1) with an integrated

manual feeder. The 250‑sheet tray and the optional 650‑sheet duo tray

with an integrated multipurpose feeder support the same paper sizes

and types and are loaded in the same way.

1Pull out the tray completely.

Note: Do not remove trays while a job is printing or while Busy

appears on the display. Doing so may cause a jam.

2Squeeze, and then slide the width guide tab to the correct position

for the paper you are loading.

Notes:

•Use the paper size indicators on the bottom of the tray to

help position the guides.

•If the paper is longer than letter‑size paper, then push the

length guide and the length guide tab to extend it.

4Flex the sheets back and forth to loosen them. Do not fold or crease

the paper. Straighten the edges on a level surface.

5Load the paper stack with the recommended printable side faceup.

6Insert the tray.

7From the printer control panel, set the paper size and type in the

Paper menu to match the paper loaded in the tray.

Note: Set the correct paper size and paper type to avoid paper

jams and print quality problems.

Loading the 650‑sheet duo tray

The 650‑sheet duo tray (Tray 2) consists of a 550‑sheet tray and an

integrated 100‑sheet multipurpose feeder. The tray is loaded in the

same way as the 250‑sheet tray and the optional 550‑sheet tray, and

supports the same paper types and sizes. The only differences are the

look of the guide tabs and the location of the paper size indicators.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: To reduce the risk of

equipment instability, load each tray separately. Keep all other

trays closed until needed.

Loading the multipurpose feeder

1Push the multipurpose feeder latch to the left.

2Open the multipurpose feeder.

3Pull the multipurpose feeder extender.

Note: Guide the extender gently so that the multipurpose feeder

is fully extended and open.

4Prepare the paper for loading.

•Flex sheets of paper back and forth to loosen them. Do not fold

or crease the paper. Straighten the edges on a level surface.

•Hold transparencies by the edges. Straighten the edges on a

level surface.

Note: Avoid touching the printable side of transparencies.

Be careful not to scratch them.

•Flex a stack of envelopes back and forth to loosen them.

Straighten the edges on a level surface.

Warning—Potential Damage: Never use envelopes with

stamps, clasps, snaps, windows, coated linings, or self‑stick

adhesives. These envelopes may severely damage the

printer.

5Locate the maximum paper fill indicator and tab.

Note: Make sure the paper or specialty media is below the

maximum paper fill indicator located on the paper guides.

6Load the paper, and then adjust the width guide to lightly touch

the edge of the paper stack.

•Load paper, card stock, and transparencies with the

recommended printable side facedown and the top edge

entering first.

•Load envelopes with the flap side up and against the right side

of the paper guide.

Notes:

•Do not load or close the multipurpose feeder while a job is

printing.

•Load only one size and type of paper at a time.

•Paper should lie flat in the multipurpose feeder. Make sure

the paper fits loosely in the multipurpose feeder and is not

bent or wrinkled.

7From the printer control panel, set the paper size and type in the

Paper menu to match the paper loaded in the tray.

Loading the manual feeder

The standard 250‑sheet tray has an integrated manual feeder that can

be used to print on different types of paper one sheet at a time.

1Load a sheet of paper into the manual feeder:

•Printable side facedown for one-sided printing

•Printable side faceup for two‑sided (duplex) printing

Note: There are different ways for loading letterhead depending

on the mode of printing.

One‑sided printing using a

letterhead

Two‑sided printing using a

letterhead

•Load envelope with the flap side up and against the right side

of the paper guide.

2Feed paper into the manual feeder only to the point where its

leading edge can contact the paper guides.

Note: To achieve the best possible print quality, use only

high‑quality media designed for laser printers.

3Adjust the paper guides to the width of the paper loaded.

Warning—Potential Damage: Do not force the paper into the

feeder. Forcing the paper may cause jams.

Linking and unlinking trays

When the paper size and paper type for any trays are the same, the

printer will link those trays. When one linked tray becomes empty,

paper will feed from the next linked tray. We recommend giving all

unique paper, such as letterhead and different colored plain papers, a

different custom type name so that the trays they are in will not

automatically link.

Linking and unlinking trays

Note: This feature applies only in network printers.

1Open a Web browser, and then type the printer IP address in the

address field.

Notes:

•View the printer IP address in the TCP/IP section in the

Network/Ports menu. The IP address appears as four sets of

numbers separated by periods, such as 123.123.123.123.

•If you are using a proxy server, then temporarily disable it to

load the Web page correctly.

2Click Settings > Paper Menu.

3Change the tray settings to specify the paper size and type for the

tray.

•To link trays, make sure the paper size and type for the tray

match with that of the other tray.

•To unlink trays, make sure the paper size or type for the tray

does not match with that of the other tray.

5

4Click Submit.

Warning—Potential Damage: Paper loaded in the tray should match

the paper type name assigned in the printer. The temperature of the

fuser varies according to the specified paper type. Printing issues

may occur if settings are not properly configured.

Creating a custom name for a paper type

Assigning a Custom Type [x] name to a tray enables you to link or unlink

the tray to another tray. Use the same Custom Type [x] name for each

tray that you want to link.

Using the Embedded Web Server

1Open a Web browser, and then type the printer IP address in the

address field.

Notes:

•View the printer IP address in the TCP/IP section in the

Max Speed and Max Yield let you choose between a faster print speed

and a higher toner yield.

properly positioned and are not pressing tightly against the paper

or envelopes.
