Configuration Changes Using a Web Browser
You can check the printer status and change the printer settings using the web browser on your smartphone, tablet, or computer.
To check the printer status and to change the printer settings, display "Remote UI" on the web browser.
The Remote UI is software that enables you to perform operations, which are usually performed on the printer's operation panel, using a Web browser over a network. A network connection with the printer is required to use the Remote UI.
You can use Remote UI on the following OS and the web browser.
