HP Web Jetadmin 10.3 - Late Breaking News

Solution: To correctly map the UPI to the HP LaserJet Enterprise MFP flow M830 and HP LaserJet
Enterprise M806 devices and re-establish communication, delete the devices and rediscover them.
Background information: Note the following information about the HP LaserJet Enterprise MFP flow
M830 and HP LaserJet Enterprise M806 devices:
●
In HP Web Jetadmin 10.3 SR3, these devices use the discrete plug-in.
●
In HP Web Jetadmin 10.3 SR4 and later, these devices use the Universal Plug-in (UPI).
●
When the HP Web Jetadmin service restarts after upgrading from HP Web Jetadmin 10.3 SR3 to
HP Web Jetadmin 10.3 SR4, the plug-ins are remapped.
●
Because these devices no longer have discrete plug-in support after the upgrade, they only have
HP generic plug-in support, which results in a Device Communication Error status.
24. When the Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) policy is enabled on the server hosting
HP Web Jetadmin, all of the discovered devices are displayed with a Device Communication Error status.
