Using Remote UI to update the printer's Firmware

The Remote UI service allows you to check printer information and execute utility functions from your computer or smartphone.

Checking the printer IP address

To use this service, first check the IP address of this machine from the operation panel of the machine.

Important

• Before you check the IP address of this machine or use the Remote UI, make sure that the machine is connected to the LAN and the LAN environment is connected to the Internet. Note that the customer is responsible for paying all Internet connection fees.
