DSS vs WebJet Admin
HP Digital Sending Software and HP WebJet Admin are two different software products available from HP with very different value propositions. However, while the products are different there is still some overlap in functionality. The purpose of this section is to provide a basic understanding of the differences between DSS and HP WebJet Admin.
HP WebJet Admin is a fleet management tool designed to manage printers and Digital Sending- enabled devices on a network. Features include device configuration, firmware installation, remote diagnostics, alerting and reporting - to name a few. For instance, system administrators can use this tool to get alerts for specific error conditions, update firmware on the entire fleet of devices and create usage reports.
HP Digital Sending Software extends the embedded Digital Sending features of supported devices with features such as LAN Fax, OCR, Workflows and Personal Address Books. Where DSS may appear to overlap somewhat with WebJet Admin is in that it also manages the Digital Sending settings for connected devices. In fact, when a device is connected to DSS it is only possible to manage the Digital Sending settings using the DSS Configuration Utility. WebJet Admin can still be used to manage all other settings on the device. For more information on the values and capabilities of DSS, please refer to other sections of this document.
