How to configure WebPRNT TSP650 via HTTP requests

Before you start

For the setup of the printer, we will need the test receipts.

To perform a hardware test on your printer, follow these 5 following steps.

1. Turn off the Star printer.

2. Press and hold the feed button.

3. Turn the printer back on.

4. Continue to hold the feed button until the Network Configuration report prints out. This will print out two test receipts. At the bottom of the second page, it will show Current IP Parameters Status. Keep this page or note down the IP Address.

5. Confirm the printer’s IP address.

In our example the IP address is 10.1.10.165. Please note that your IP address may be different.

Open

 Important:

Your IP address will likely be different to the one listed in the picture above.
