the media and pauses while the ink dries. Then the media is pulled back into the
device and the second side is printed. When printing is complete, the media is
dropped onto the output tray. Do not grab it before printing is complete.
• You can print on both sides of supported custom-sized media by turning the media
over and feeding it into the device again. For more information, see

							Embedded Web server
When the device is connected to a network, you can use the embedded Web server to
view status information, change settings, and manage it from your computer.
NOTE:For a list of system requirements for the embedded Web server, see
Embedded Web server specifications.
Some settings might be restricted by the requirement for a password.
You can open and use the embedded Web server without being connected to the
Internet; however, some features will not be available.
The embedded Web server (EWS) places very small text files (cookies) on your hard
drive when you are browsing. These files let the EWS recognize your computer the next
time you visit. For example, if you have configured the EWS language, a cookie helps
remember which language youve selected so that the next time you open the EWS, the
pages are displayed in that language. Though some cookies are cleared at the end of
each session (such as the cookie that stores the selected language), others (such as the
cookie that stores customer-specific preferences) are stored on the computer until you
clear them manually.
You can configure your browser to accept all cookies, or you can configure it to alert you
every time a cookie is offered, which allows you to decide which cookies to accept or
refuse. You can also use your browser to remove unwanted cookies.
NOTE:Depending on your device, if you chose to disable cookies, you will disable
one or more of the following features:
• Automatically refreshing the existing page
• Starting where you left the application (especially useful when using setup wizards)
• Preventing other users from modifying the same settings while you are making
changes
• Remembering the EWS browser language setting
For information about how to change your privacy and cookie settings and how to view
or delete cookies, see the documentation available with your Web browser.
