Steps for Adding or Removing Columns for Device Lists

1.Access any Device List. Right-click in any column header and select Customize. The Select Columns wizard is started.

2.To specify the columns displayed on this page, select one of the following options from the Category drop-down list:

Favorites: Displays the most commonly used columns.

All: Displays all of the available columns, except obsolete columns. To display only a specific category of columns, expand All, and then select the category.

Obsolete: Displays columns that are still available in HP Web Jetadmin, but have been replaced by new columns or will not be supported in the future.

3.Select the column by highlighting it and clicking the arrow buttons between the two lists. To select multiple columns, use either Ctrl+Click or Shift+Click. To move all devices from one list to the other, use the double arrow buttons.

Some complex columns support displaying portions of their detailed information as individual columns. These complex columns display the detailed items as children in a tree structure in the column selection control. To see the detailed information that can also be used as columns, expand the complex column. When you move a detailed item to the other list, the name of the item is displayed followed by the name of its parent in parentheses.

4.Click OK. The changes should be reflected on the Device Lists.
