Network configuration
You might need to configure certain network parameters on the printer. You can configure
these parameters from the printer control panel, the embedded Web server, or for most
networks, from the HP Web Jetadmin software (or the HP LaserJet Utility for Macintosh).
Note For more information about using the e mbedded Web server, see Using
the embedded Web server.
For a complete list of supported networks and for instructions on configuring network
parameters from software, see the HP Jetdirect Print Server Administrator’s Guide. The guide
