Start up Remote UI

The Remote UI functions through your web browser to allow you to check the printer's activity, change settings, and make address book registration. You can manage/configure the printer remotely, as well as save time making settings and registrations efficiently with a PC.

The Remote UI is divided into the following two modes. Depending on which mode you are logged in to, the Remote UI enables you to do different things.

Administrator Mode

Available operations are limited to functionality such as checking usage/logs, canceling printing, and making changes to some settings.
