CentreWare Internet Services
CentreWare IS is a printer administration and support tool using World Wide Web
technology. With CentreWare IS software, you can access printer status and manage your
printer over a TCP/IP network using a web browser.
CentreWare IS gives you the following capabilities:
■
Receive printer status and manage printers, independent of network servers and
operating systems.
■
Define a link to your local web server’s support page.
■
Access online manuals and technical support information by using built-in links to
the Xerox web site.
CentreWare IS provides an easy-to-use, consistent interface that you can use for most of
the configuration tasks described throughout this guide.
CentreWare IS requires only a World Wide Web browser and a TCP/IP connection between
the printer and the network. (TCP/IP and HTTP must be enabled in the printer.)
For complete information on using CentreWare IS, see the CentreWare IS Online Help.
Accessing the Printer From a Browser
Once a TCP/IP connection to the printer has been established and the printer’s IP address
is set, you can visit the printer’s Status page from your web browser by entering the
printer’s URL (Uniform Resource Locator), just as you would to visit any web site. The
printer’s URL is:
http://
printer’s-IP-address
/
where
printer’s-IP-address
is the IP address or DNS name you set during TCP/IP
configuration.
Example using IP address:
http://192

Example using DNS name:
http://Xerox_Marketing/
