Web Scan
With HP's Web Scan, you can perform a simple scan from your supported networked multi-function
peripheral (MFP) or All-in-One device, using a web browser on your computer. Web Scan lets you save
the scan in a file or e-mail it (if an e-mail server is configured). You do this using the embedded web
server that is maintained for each HP Jetdirect print server.

Starting Web Scan
Start the embedded web server
1. Make sure that the TCP/IP protocol is configured on both the print server and your
computer.
❍
On your computer: If your computer can connect to the Internet, you have TCP/IP
configured. If not, check with your network administrator for information on configuring
TCP/IP for your network.
❍
On the print server: Print a configuration page by pressing the Test button on the print
server that is attached to your MFP or All-in-One device. You can find the IP address in
the section on TCP/IP Configuration. If the IP address is 0.0.0.0, the print server is
initializing; wait approximately two minutes and print another configuration page. If the
IP address is 192.0.0.192, this is a default address and may not be valid on your network;
configure a new IP address on the print server (see the
TCP/IP Configuration section for
instructions).
2. Point your browser at the print server. Using a supported web browser , enter the IP
address of the print server as the URL. The embedded web server's home page will appear.
