save time, control costs, protect your assets, and provide a better return on your investment.
HP Web Jetadmin enables you to:
• Gain a clear picture of how many and what kinds of devices you have.
• Get visibility into your supplies usage, so you can make smarter purchasing decisions, reduce
spending, and even track and allocate printing costs to individual departments or users.
• Simplify, and in many cases, automate routine tasks. For example, you can apply fleet-wide
policies to automatically configure new devices with the right printing and security settings when
they’re added to your network.
• Give your help desk staff the tools they need—such as automatic alerts—to resolve problems
quickly, and often proactively, before a call is even received.
• Verify that your devices are up-to-date with the latest firmware and are properly configured
(especially important for organizations that need to meet regulatory requirements).
• Use robust tracking and reporting tools to help you make better decisions about how your
devices are deployed across your organization, so you can make the most of your IT investments.
• Take advantage of additional options, like the HP Database Connectivity Module which works
together with Web Jetadmin to help you establish and help achieve environmental goals.
• Get the ultimate in investment protection with HP Web Jetadmin Premium Support. This
expanded service option gives your staff access to HP’s dedicated software support engineers,
who provide advice, usage recommendations, problem diagnosis, and more.
HP Web Jetadmin can benefit IT-managed print environments of all sizes, from large enterprises
managing thousands of devices to small businesses with just a handful. For more information about

Control color access
Use HP Web Jetadmin
6
and the HP Universal Print Driver
18
to assign color access by user, time of
day, or application, or disallow color output completely until it’s needed for special projects. People
who truly need to leverage the power of color—such as your sales team and marketing
department—can, while others automatically default to black-and-white output.

secure your environment. You can count on support for a number of solutions, along with built-in
security features such as PIN printing options.
Protect your printer
As capabilities expand and devices become more integrated into your work, device security
becomes increasingly important. This printer features a number of options to help secure against
undesired access:

access, help secure access to management utilities, and avoid unwanted device configurations.
Control access to the printer, device settings, and functions, with options like:
- Multiple embedded authentication methods. Print with a positive ID. With authentication
options available from the device, you can configure Windows®/Kerberos authentication,
22
LDAP authentication,

and user PIN authentication that integrates with your existing
infrastructure.
