EMBEDDED WEB SERVER CONFIGURATION TO ENABLE
AUTOSEND AND OUTGOING EMAIL FOR HP QUICKPAGE
INTRODUCTION
To ensure accurate billing, the HP QuickPage program requires collection of the metered
information from the printers and multifunction products (MFPs) under contract. HP AutoSend, a
standard feature in the device firmware on many workgroup HP LaserJets, can be used to provide
this capability. This document provides a step-by-step guide to configure HP AutoSend on
HP printers and MFPs
ATTENTION: It is very important that you follow all steps in this document and that the proper
email address for sending of the AutoSend report is entered into the
AutoSend “Email
Destinations”
CONFIGURATION STEPS
box in the final step.
Prerequisites
1.
Identify the IP address of the printer/MFP: Navigate through the menu in the display panel of
the device and print the configuration page. The IP of the device can be found under the
networking section or under the “Embedded JetDirect” section.
2.
Gather SMTP server details (server name, port, user name, and password if authentication is
required). This can be obtained from the IT admin of the client. This information is vital for
AutoSend to function.
Section 1
Use the following steps to configure HP AutoSend on HP printers and MFPs.
