NOTE: HP does not support or test print queue creation and print path management via HP Web Jetadmin on any operating systems other than those listed above.

Supported Devices

HP Web Jetadmin supports HP devices and third-party devices that are connected through HP Jetdirect print servers. HP Web Jetadmin also supports third-party devices that are standard printer MIB compliant and are connected to the network. For third-party devices, HP Web Jetadmin provides basic capabilities as well as more robust capabilities if the devices are used with HP-certified plug-ins for HP Web Jetadmin.

NOTE: If the following devices use a Universal Plug-in (UPI), WS Discovery must be enabled on the devices:

HP LaserJet Pro

HP Officejet Pro

HP FutureSmart with firmware versions earlier than 3.2.3

If WS Discovery is disabled on HP LaserJet Pro and HP Officejet Pro devices, HP Web Jetadmin uses the correct UPI and displays a Device Communication Error status for the devices after a device discovery or full refresh is performed.

If WS Discovery is disabled on HP FutureSmart devices with firmware versions earlier than 3.2.3,

HP Web Jetadmin uses a generic device model instead of the correct UPI after a device discovery or full refresh is performed.
