6.3 WebPanel
6.3.1 Introduction
WebPanel is an intuitive browser interface that allows you to remotely manage your
network
attached printer. From WebPanel, you can do virtually everything you can do from the
printer's control panel.
In addition, WebPanel provides full access to all of the TallyCom networking features.
Before
using WebPanel, you must configure your printer with an IP address, using one of the
three
methods discussed in the Assigning the IP Address section above.
T
he screenshots that are used in this document to demonstrate the
f
unctionality may vary depending on the printer model.
6.3.2 Web Browser
WebPanel is accessed from the printer through a web browser, i.e.Internet Explorer,
Firefox,
etc. The browser needs to be configured with cache and history empty, and the browser
set
up to check for new pages every time, to insure that connections to WebPanel will
produce
the latest data.
WebPanel does not work through a proxy server. Therefore, the web browser must be
setup
to NOT use the Proxy Server for local IP addresses.
D
isclaimer: Dascom WebPanel runs in conjunction with third party software, notably
web
browsers, which are designed to run independently of the Dascom software. Dascom
cannot control the third party output or how it behaves from release to release. The
above browser versions have been tested with WebPanel and while there is full
functionality, there
will undoubtedly be visual differences and anomalies between products and versions
with which Dascom has no control.
