Features and Benefits of the Remote UI

The Remote UI is software that allows you to manage the printer using a web
browser. By accessing the printer from the web browser via a network, you can
check the printer status or job logs, and specify various settings. The Remote UI
has the following features.

Before You Start

NOTE
Depending on the printer model or availability of the optional accessories for the printer,
the display screen images and the options that can be controlled and specified vary. For
more details, see "Chapter 3 Various Functions of the Remote UI".
The screenshots used in this section are from Windows XP Professional with which
LBP5100 is being used.

Software other than a web browser is not required.

Because the software (a web server) required for using the Remote UI is preinstalled in
the network board, you do not need to have software other than a web browser ready.
Running the web browser and specifying the IP address of the printer display the Remote
UI screen and allow you to use the Remote UI.

Features and Benefits of the Remote UI

 You can check the printer status from a computer on the network.
The Remote UI allows you to access the printer via a network and display the current
status, various information, and job logs. You can manage the printer from a remote
computer without moving to the printer.

Before You Start

You can specify or check various printer settings from a computer.

In the Remote UI, you can specify the network settings and check the printer status. The
Administrator mode (the mode to which you need to enter the password to log in) allows
only the administrator to perform the settings and operation related to the printer
management.

Features and Benefits of the Remote UI

The Firmware of the Network Board

Depending on the printer you are using, the supported firmware version of the
network board varies as follows.

Before You Start

For NB-C2
Printer
LBP5100/5000/3300

Firmware Version of the Network Board

Ver. 1.10 or later

For NB-C1
Printer
LBP5000/3300

Firmware Version of the Network Board

Ver. 1.20 or later

If the firmware version is old, the printer may not operate properly. Make sure that the
printer you are using supports the version.
If the version is not supported by the printer you are using, download the latest update file
from the Canon website to update the firmware.
For details on the procedures for checking and updating the firmware version, see
"Chapter 5 Appendix" in Network Guide.
NOTE
You can also update the firmware using the update file in the "NB-XX_Firmware"* folder
in the CD-ROM supplied with the printer (If the update file is not in the CD-ROM,
download it from the Canon website.).
For details on the update file, see the README file in the "NB-XX_Firmware"* folder.
* XX indicates "C1" or "C2".

Input Example : http://192.168.0.215/

The screen of the Remote UI is displayed.

2-2

Starting the Remote UI

NOTE
Depending on the system environment, the screen of the Remote UI is not displayed
even after performing the settings above. In this case, enter "http://<the IP address of the

Using the Remote UI

IMPORTANT
If you are not sure about the IP address of the printer, refer to the Network Status Print or
ask your network administrator.
For details on Network Status Print, see "Chapter 2 Setting Up the Network Environment
for Printing" in Network Guide.
If the host name of the printer is registered in the DNS server, you can enter
["hostname"."domain name"] instead of the IP address.
Example: http://my_printer.xy_dept.company.com/
If the screen of the Remote UI is not displayed, make sure that the entered IP address or
["hostname"."domain name"] is correct. If the screen of the Remote UI is not displayed
even if the entered address is correct, consult your network administrator.
You cannot connect the computer to the printer via a proxy server. If you are using a
proxy server, perform the following setting. (The setting varies depending on the network
environment. Consult your network administrator.)
- On the settings for the proxy server of the web browser, add the IP address of the
printer to [Exceptions] (The addresses that do not use the proxy server).
Configure the web browser so that you can use Cookie.
If multiple Remote UIs are running simultaneously, the latest setting is effective. If you
want to log in as Administrator, it is recommended that only one Remote UI should be
running at a time.
