Identifying the printer eSF version

Overview

Embedded solutions framework (

    -3.11.0.fls,
    e4
    represents
    eSF v4.x
    printers.
  • Administrator's Guides

    , and
    eTask4
    frameworks."
  • User Guides

    printers only."
  • App Readme files

Identifying the eSF version

There are two ways to identify the eSF version:
  • Print a
    Menu Settings
    page and look under
    Embedded Solutions
    .
  • In the
    Embedded Web Server
    (EWS), navigate to
    Reports
    >
    Device Settings
    via the (
    EWS
    ) by following the steps below:
    1. Enter the IP Address into the Internet browser's URL field; e.g., http:/
      /IP_Address
      , where
      IP_Address
      is the TCP/IP address of the printer.
    2. Click
      Reports
      .
    3. Click
      Device Settings (Menu Settings).
    4. Scroll down the page until you see

      .
eSF version 3 example:

Obtaining the TCP/IP address

Read this only if you do not know how to identify your printer's IP address.
The following are the general steps for accessing the TCP/IP address from the control panel.
  1. Tap
    Menus
    button.
  2. Tap
    Network/Ports
    .
  3. Tap
    Std Network
    .
  4. Tap
    Std. Net Setup
    .
  5. Tap
    TCP/IP
    .
  6. Tap
    IP Address
    .
  7. Take note of the
    IP address
    .
The Menus button in this example may not exist on your model and
Std. Network
may be read
Network 1
if a network option card is active on your printer. Optionally, you can print a network settings page to obtain the TCP/IP address.
