Exceptions Even though the AXIS 5470e/570/670e is fully compatible with the
HP JetAdmin tool, the AXIS 5470e/570/670e behaves differently
than an HP print server in certain situations. The exceptions from the
traditional HP JetAdmin functionality are presented below.
The print server
concept
HP JetAdmin considers each printer port of the HP print server as an
independent print server. One physical HP print server will act as one
or three print servers depending on the number of supported printer
ports. HP JetAdmin always considers the AXIS 5470e/570/670e as
one print server, independent of the number of supported ports. The
effects of this different behavior are:
• You can change a printer port’s properties from any of the AXIS
5470e/570/670e printer ports’ property pages. This can not be
done with an HP print server.
• If you are performing a reset on one of the AXIS 5470e/570/670e
printer ports, all three ports will be reset.
• From each port you can view all print queues connected to the
print server and not only the queues connected to the specific
printer port. To be able to distinguish between the queues, they
must be named <queue_name>!<logical_printer_number>.
• The AXIS 5470e/570/670e printer ports have the same name.
They are only distinguished by suffixes. If you change the name
on one of the AXIS 5470e/570/670e printer ports, all three port
names will be changed. Note that the port names displayed in HP
JetAdmin will not change until one of the refresh commands in
the Device Refresh menu has been performed.
