HP Web Jetadmin and the HP Embedded Web Server

HP Web Jetadmin is a Web-based system management tool that you can use with a Web browser. The HP EWS and HP Web Jetadmin work together to meet all of your product-management needs. You can use the software to install and manage networked products effectively. Network administrators can manage networked products remotely, from practically anywhere.

The HP EWS provides a simple, easy-to-use solution for one-to-one product management in environments that have a limited number of products. However, in environments that have several products, you might want to use HP Web Jetadmin to manage groups of products. With HP Web Jetadmin you can discover, manage, and configure multiple products simultaneously.

HP Web Jetadmin is available from HP online support (HP Web Jetadmin www.hp.com/go/ webjetadmin).
