You can access the print server from the consoles in the following ways:

  • Local Console
    By connecting a commercially available monitor, keyboard, and mouse to the print server, you can directly operate the print server with the local console.
  • Remote Console
    You can operate the print server from a web browser of the client computer. To use the remote console, connect the client computer and print server to a network. To access the print server using the remote console, log in to the print server.

The layout of the console screen is the same if accessed from either. (Some functions are not available from the Remote Console.)

You can manage features such as logging, network, and maintenance on the console screen.
