Configuring the Virtual Printer

This section explains how to configure the virtual printer by using a web browser from networked computers. (We use Web Image Monitor installed on this machine.)

1Start a web browser from a networked computer.

2Enter "http://(machine's IP address or host name) /" in the address bar to access the printer whose settings you want to change.

Top Page of Web Image Monitor appears.

3Click [Login].

The dialog box for entering the user name and password appears.

4Enter the user name and password, and then click [Login].

Contact your administrator for information about the settings.

Depending on the configuration of your Web browser, the login user name and password might be saved. If you do not want to save them, configure your Web browser's settings so that this information is not saved.

5Click [Configuration] on the [Device Management] menu.

6Under "Printer", click [Virtual Printer Settings].

7Select the virtual printer whose configuration you want to change, and then click [Change].

8Change the configuration as required, and then click [OK].

If you want to configure this virtual printer for an interrupt printer, select [TCP/IP (Unspecified, Priority)] in the "Protocol" list.

9Click [Logout].

10Quit Web Image Monitor.
