OVERVIEW

HP Web Jetadmin is a client/server application that is used for remotely managing HP and non-HP

printing and imaging devices. It is a multi-user application, which means that many users can access

the software through simultaneous client sessions.

HP WEB JETADMIN IMPLEMENTATION PRACTICES

HP Web Jetadmin implementations should always start with an implementation plan. A formal,

phased implementation should be led and driven by a team of people. In some cases, executive

sponsorship may be required to accomplish a successful implementation. Finally, a deployment plan

should be created that meets the stated needs or goals of the installation. Following is a limited list of

questions to ask when developing a deployment plan:

 What is the main purpose of the HP Web Jetadmin implementation?

 Who will be using HP Web Jetadmin, and which feature permissions will be required?

 Where will the application be hosted, and what are the hardware requirements for a successful

implementation?

 Who will administer the HP Web Jetadmin implementation?

HP Web Jetadmin use

The implementation plan should consider how the software will be deployed, and the number of users

interacting with it. In some cases, HP Web Jetadmin is implemented for only one user, but more

commonly it is implemented for multiple users. An IT-supported server typically hosts HP Web

Jetadmin, but in some cases a personal desktop or client hosts it. Following is a limited list of usage

cases:

 Deployed at the helpdesk: Multiple users access the software occasionally for troubleshooting.

 Deployed to a print management team: Multiple users troubleshoot, configure, and update device

firmware on a regular basis.

 Deployed to a facility planning team: Multiple users access the application to generate reports

used in planning balanced deployment.

 Deployed to a single print manager: One user manages and monitors device usage.

Users and permissions

In all but the last case listed above, HP Web Jetadmin is deployed to multiple users. When the

application is deployed to only one user, the administrator and the user may be the same person. In

the other cases, there is probably going to be an administrator, and the users’ needs should be

assessed in order to provide the features necessary for completing tasks. For example, the helpdesk

staff may be tasked with only viewing device status and using some troubleshooting tools. Or, the

print or facility management teams may need only reporting features. In some cases, the administrator

may want to reserve features like application management or discovery to the administrator team. In

all cases, User and Roles features should be considered in implementation planning. See the online

Help or the “HP Web Jetadmin Security” white paper on the Self Help and Documentation tab at

www.hp.com/go/wja for more information about user security features.

Hosting the application

The HP Web Jetadmin Self Help and Documentation tab at www.hp.com/go/wja contains the “Web

Jetadmin Installation and Setup Guide.” This document is crucial for implementation planning. When
