Web Config is an application that runs in web browsers, such as Microsoft Edge and Safari, on a computer or a

Config, connect the scanner and the computer or device to the same network.
The following browsers are supported. Use the latest version.

You may be prompted to enter the administrator password while using this device. See the following for details on the

How to Run Web Config in a Web Browser
The scanner comes with built-in software called Web Config (a Web page where you can make settings). To access
Web Config, simply enter the IP address of a network-connected scanner in your Web browser.
1. Check the scanner's IP address.
Select Settings > Network Settings > Network Status on the scanner's control panel, and then select the active
connection method (Wi-Fi Status or Wi-Fi Direct Status) to confirm the scanner's IP address.
Example IP address: 192.168.100.201
2. Launch a Web browser from a computer or a smart device, and then enter the scanner's IP address in the
address bar.
Format: http://scanner's IP address/
Example: http://192.168.100.201/
If a warning screen is displayed in your browser, you can safely ignore the warning and display the Web page
(Web Config). Since the scanner uses a self-signed certificate when accessing HTTPS, a warning is displayed
on the browser when you start Web Config; this does not indicate a problem and can be safely ignored.
Depending on your browser, you may need to click on Advanced Settings to view the Web page.
