Re: remote see the web interface from the internet

We are copier techs, and in many cases experts when it comes to scanning and printing, but very few of us are certified IT professionals outside of A+ Net+..If you really want to do this hire a IT professional..It probably will result in failure..

Re: remote see the web interface from the internet

I have to wonder about this guys purpose for wanting access to the machines web interface from anywhere on the planet.

If its legit, like to keep an eye on click counts, toner, and error messages, there are plenty of other ways to do that. The essayist being email reporting.

However in all this conversation, the guy never really states the clear reason he wishes for total machine access.

I find this undertaking questionable and this guy kinda sneaky.

So I will straight up ask;

hamurabi, what is the reason you wish to access to this machine from anywhere?

Re: remote see the web interface from the internet

I'd like to preface this by saying that while I don't recommend doing this, this is what I would do to accomplish what you want.

I'm probably just regurgitating what others have posted but maybe it will help.

I also highly recommend setting up an access range on the copier so only computers on your local network can print to this device (if the device even supports that, from the other posts sounds like an old machine).

First, in the location with the copier, go into the router set up port forwarding and have it point to the IP of the copier.

You can also do DMZ method by putting copier IP in the DMZ section, but I wouldn't recommend it (I really wouldn't recommend doing this in general but you have a bit more security with the first option).

After that, see if it shows your public IP in the router, if you're having trouble just google 'what is my IP' and it will show you your public IP.

Then go to remote location and from a web browser either:

A) put in the public IP followed by the port ex. xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:yyyy where x is your IP and y is your port you forwarded
B) put in the public IP if you used the DMZ method

You should get the web interface of the copier.

Don't think of conspiracys all the time, the coin has and Another side.
I just want to see my copiers ink status. I dont care how.
If i can be informed by email thenjust let me know how to do it.
I see in the machine that emails can only inform me of the total numbers of copies. If i am wrong you can let me know please

So in the first option i do the port forward, and point it to the ip of the copier.
The ip of the is something like 192.168.1.19.
How will i Access this from another network? Since it is NOT an external ip so i can see from the internet.

Since you know many ways to do this why dont you tell me a few to help me?

Re: remote see the web interface from the internet

Just set email notifications in admin mode, you can have it email you daily for any jams, codes, messages for consumables etc..
Why don't you get a service manual and find the procedure?

The last line is snarky because it would be polite to ask for the procedure followed by the word please. Not just "why don't you tell me how"

[hamurabi]

Re: remote see the web interface from the internet

Ι have read the manual and i dont see notifications via email for the ink.
It lets you know only when the ink is over
. This doesn't help me, i want to know before it is over.

No way to know this via email notifications on KM especially that old model.
We use third party products like PrintFleet (paid) to notify us and for monitoring.
Are you tech or enduser?

Re: remote see the web interface from the internet

I am enduser.
These third party apps how they communicate with the copier?

Re: remote see the web interface from the internet

Many years ago I used a service called DynDNS to access a FTP server in my home. I thing you can still use it with most routers if you like so there's no need to have a PC running with n updater tool.

When i connect to that router from my home pc i am connected to work network and have access to all devices on the network.

Re: remote see the web interface from the internet

I'm not sure if this will work, but could you connect a raspberry pi with team viewer installed and access that way?

Re: remote see the web interface from the internet

There are plenty of videos and articles on port forwarding with no-ip. I do all the time when installing security cameras. Never tried it with a copier. First thing you need to know is what ports to forward. Also, all routers differ when trying to set up port forward. Why kind os ISP router do you have? What ports do you need to forward? That's work that you're gonna have to do for yourself.
