Understand the network configuration page (some models
only)
If the device is connected to a network, you can print a network configuration page to
view the network settings for the device. You can use the network configuration page to
help troubleshoot network connectivity problems. If you need to call HP, it is often useful
to print this page before calling.
Network Configuration Page
1. General Information: Shows information about the current status and active
connection type of the network, and other information, such as the URL of the
embedded Web server.
2. 802.3 Wired: Shows information about the active wired network connection, such as
the IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, as well as the hardware address of
the device.
3. 802.11 Wireless: Shows information about the active wireless network connection,
such as the IP address, the communication mode, the network name, authentication
type, and signal strength.
4. mDNS: Shows information about the active Multicast Domain Name System (mDNS)
connection. mDNS services are typically used on small networks for IP address and
name resolution (through UDP port 5353) where a conventional DNS server is not
used.
5. SLP: Shows information about the current Service Location Protocol (SLP)
connection. SLP is used by network management applications for device
management. The device supports SNMPv1 protocol on IP networks.
