Use the HP Embedded Web Server (EWS) to enable the Cartridge Protection feature
From the EWS, a network administrator can enable the Cartridge Protection feature. This protects the
cartridges associated with the printer from being stolen and used in other printers.
1. Open the HP Embedded Web Server (EWS):
a. From the Home screen on the printer control panel, touch the Menu icon, and then touch Info.
b. Touch Connectivity to display the IP address or host name.
c. Open a web browser, and in the address line, type the IP address or host name exactly as
it displays on the printer control panel. Press the Enter key on the computer keyboard. The
EWS opens.
NOTE: If the web browser displays a message indicating that accessing the website might
not be safe, select the Advanced option to continue to the website. Accessing this website will
not harm the computer.
2. From the left navigation pane, select Supplies.
IMPORTANT: Access to the Embedded Web Server (EWS) menus requires a personal
identification number (PIN). The default PIN for this printer is located on a sticker inside the front
door. Use this PIN to log in when prompted.
The default PIN can be changed by a user or administrator.
3. On the Supplies page, select the Supply Settings tab.
4. Under Cartridge Protection, click the button to enable the setting. The button turns blue and a
message confirms that the setting has been changed.
CAUTION: After enabling cartridge protection for the printer, all subsequent toner cartridges
installed in the printer are automatically and
permanently
protected. To avoid protecting a new
cartridge, disable the feature
before
installing the new cartridge.
Turning the feature off does not turn off protection for cartridges that are currently installed.
