Using a Web Browser
You can check the machine status and change settings using a web browser from networked computers. (We use Web Image Monitor installed on this machine.)
You cannot configure the machine settings using Web Image Monitor from a computer connected to the USB device server's network. Be sure to access Web Image Monitor from a computer connected to the machine's network.

Configuring the machine
To perform the operations from Web Image Monitor, TCP/IP is required. After the machine is configured to use TCP/IP, operations from Web Image Monitor become available.
If you are using a proxy server, change the web browser settings so that no data goes through the proxy server to connect to this machine. Contact your administrator for information about the settings.
When using a host name under Windows Server 2008/2008 R2/2012/2012 R2/2016/2019 with IPv6 protocol, perform host name resolution using an external DNS server. The host file cannot be used.
If you are using Internet Explorer 7.0/8.0 under an IPv6 environment, enter the machine's host name, not the IP address, in the browser's address bar.

Display and operation problems can occur if you do not enable JavaScript and cookies, or if you are using a non-recommended web browser.
When you are using Firefox, fonts and colors may be different, or tables may be out of shape.
Web Image Monitor supports screen reader software. We recommend JAWS 7.0 or a later version.
If you click your browser's back button but the previous page does not appear, click the browser's refresh button and try again.
Machine information is not automatically updated. To perform an update, click [Refresh] in the display area.
We recommend using Web Image Monitor in the same network.
If the machine is firewall-protected, it cannot be accessed from computers outside the firewall.
When using the machine under DHCP, the IP address may be automatically changed by the DHCP server settings. Enable DDNS setting on the machine, and then connect using the machine's host name. Alternatively, set a static IP address to the DHCP server.
If the HTTP port is disabled, connection to the machine using the machine's URL cannot be established. SSL setting must be enabled on this machine. For details, consult your network administrator.
When using the SSL encryption protocol, enter "https://(machine's IP address or host name)/".
To use JAWS 7.0 under Web Image Monitor, you must be running Windows operating system and Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or a later version.
You can access Web Image Monitor more quickly by registering the machine's URL as a bookmark. Note that the URL you register must be the URL of the top page, which is the page that appears before login. If you register the URL of a page that appears after login, Web Image Monitor will not open properly from the bookmark.
