Getting Started with Reports
The following steps are required to generate a report:
1. Collect the data: Specify the devices for which HP Web Jetadmin collects data. The data collection
process causes network traffic and requires database space, so you must enable data collection when
you want a report. You can specify which reports HP Web Jetadmin generates based on the type of data
collection you select.
2. Generate the report: Specify the following options:
●
The type of report to generate. The type of data collection specified in step 1 determines which
reports HP Web Jetadmin can generate.
●
The device group or individual devices to include in the report, which might be all of the devices or
a subset of the devices specified in step 1.
NOTE: You can only select devices for which data has been collected.
●
The time frame for the data to be included in the report.
This must be done each time you want the report to run.

Data Collection Anomalies
Data collections are groups of devices that have specific collection types enabled. You can apply a data
collection type such as Device Utilization to a single device, to multiple devices, or to a device group. When a
data collection is first applied to a device or devices, HP Web Jetadmin launches a data collection
immediately establishing a data baseline. Once the device is populated under a specific data collection type,
data collections occur at some interval or by way of some trigger.
