DSS vs WebJet Admin
HP Digital Sending Software and HP WebJet Admin are two different software products available
from HP with very different value propositions. However, while the products are different there is still
some overlap in functionality. The purpose of this section is to provide a basic understanding of the
differences between DSS and HP WebJet Admin.
HP WebJet Admin is a fleet management tool designed to manage printers and Digital Sending-
enabled devices on a network. Features include device configuration, firmware installation, remote
diagnostics, alerting and reporting - to name a few. For instance, system administrators can use this
tool to get alerts for specific error conditions, update firmware on the entire fleet of devices and create
usage reports.
HP Digital Sending Software extends the embedded Digital Sending features of supported devices
with features such as LAN Fax, OCR, Workflows and Personal Address Books. Where DSS may
appear to overlap somewhat with WebJet Admin is in that it also manages the Digital Sending
settings for connected devices. In fact, when a device is connected to DSS it is only possible to
manage the Digital Sending settings using the DSS Configuration Utility. WebJet Admin can still be
used to manage all other settings on the device. For more information on the values and capabilities
of DSS, please refer to other sections of this document.
