Set or Change a Login Password for Web Based Management

We recommend changing the default login password to prevent unauthorised access to Web Based Management.
  1. Start your web browser.
  2. Type "https://machine's IP address" in your browser's address bar (where "machine's IP address" is the machine's IP address).
    For example:

    https://192.168.1.2

    • If you are using a Domain Name System or enable a NetBIOS name, you can type another name, such as "SharedPrinter" instead of the IP address.

      • For example:

        https://SharedPrinter

      If you enable a NetBIOS name, you can also use the node name.

      • For example:

        https://brnxxxxxxxxxxxx

      The NetBIOS name can be found in the Network Configuration Report.

    • For Mac, access Web Based Management by clicking the machine's icon on the Status Monitor screen.
  3. Do one of the following:
    • If you have previously set your own password, type it, and then click image.
    • If you have not previously set your own password, type initpass, and then click image.
  4. Click Administrator.
  5. Type the password you want to use in the Enter New Password field (8 to 32 characters).
  6. Retype the password in the Confirm New Password field.
