CentOS - Oct 2014 - lynx only shows : FRAME: wlmframe

Hello,

when I log in through ssh to a remote site and open the web interface 
from a ( new ) printer using Lynx,
it only displays :

FRAME: wlmframe

I suspect this is some unfriendly coding, that will cost me time in 
opening Firefox instead of Lynx or w3m.

Does anybody know of a way around this?

Greetings, Johan

You will need to figure out what URL the printer wants.  You can look at
the source HTML to see if you can figure it out.  links might be able to
show more of the page, as well.  That might be a total solution, as
there may be even more ''unfriendly'' coding that prevents you
from using
their UI from a text-based browser (e.g., point-and-click JavaScript).

You could also use SSH port forwarding to let you open up the printer's web
page on your workstation rather on the remote server.
