How to connect to Robo web dashboard

Check that your printer is connected to the correct network.

NOTE: Your printer and the device you're trying to connect to the web dashboard with need to be on the same network.

How to connect

There are three different ways to connect to the web dashboard from your browser:

IP Address

1. Here we can use the IP address of your printer to login to the web dashboard. On the screen of the Robo C2 or Robo R2, go to Utilities> Network> Network Status. Here you will see an IP address. Copy this IP address down and bring it over to your computer.
2. Open up your web browser (such as Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox), and enter this IP address into the address bar. If you entered it correctly, you will see a web dashboard come up.
