DSS-enabled device

DSS-enabled devices are the HP MFPs, Digital Senders or ScanJet products that support DSS. These devices allow end-users to make use of DSS functionality by scanning to the various destination types, using the address book etc. See Supported devices – Legacy device support on page 5 for a complete list of supported devices.

The firmware in these devices has a component built-in which enables use of DSS functionality. In the previous generation products this is enabled through DSMP (Digital Sending Management Protocol). In HP’s latest generation products this component has been replaced by a WS-* (Web Services Star) based interface.

Since all DSS features have to be supported by the device firmware DSS 4.91 has a minimum firmware version requirement, which can be found hereTable 3-3 DSS 4.91 supported device firmware revisions on page 45. Over time, as new features become available in DSS, it may be required to update the device firmware for compatibility. These changes will be documented in detail in the DSS release notes.
