HP Web Jetadmin enables you to:
• Gain a clear picture of how many and what kinds of devices you have.
• Get visibility into your supplies usage, so you can make smarter purchasing decisions, reduce
spending, and even track and allocate printing costs to individual departments or users.
• Simplify, and, in many cases, automate routine tasks. For example, you can apply fleet-wide
policies to automatically configure new devices with the right printing and security settings when
they’re added to your network.
• Give your help desk staff the tools they need—such as automatic alerts—to resolve problems
quickly, and often proactively, before a call is even received.
• Verify that your devices are up-to-date with the latest firmware and are properly configured
(especially important for organizations that need to meet regulatory requirements).
• Use robust tracking and reporting tools to help you make better decisions about how your
devices are deployed across your organization, so you can make the most of your IT investments.
• Take advantage of additional options, like the HP Database Connectivity Module which works
together with Web Jetadmin to help you establish and help achieve environmental goals.
• Get the ultimate in investment protection with HP Web Jetadmin Premium Support. This
expanded service option gives your staff access to HP’s dedicated software support engineers,
who provide advice, usage recommendations, problem diagnosis, and more.
HP Web Jetadmin can benefit IT-managed print environments of all sizes, from large enterprises
managing thousands of devices to small businesses with just a handful. For more information about

Protect your data
The HP Color LaserJet Enterprise MFP M680 series has a multitude of options when it comes to
helping you secure your environment. You can count on support for a number of solutions, along
with built-in security features, such as an HP High-Performance Secure Hard Disk and PIN printing
options.
Protect your MFP
As capabilities expand and devices become more integrated into your work, device security
becomes increasingly important. This MFP features a number of options to help secure against
undesired access:
• Authentication and authorization—Authentication can help your organization manage user
access, help secure access to management utilities, and avoid unwanted device configurations.
Authentication can also virtually eliminate wasted paper caused from unclaimed print jobs.
Control access to the MFP, device settings, and functions, with options like:
– Multiple embedded authentication methods. Print with a positive ID. With authentication
options available from the device, you can configure Windows/Kerberos authentication, LDAP
authentication, and user PIN authentication that integrates with your existing infrastructure.
Simple one-to-one device management
The MFP can also be managed using the
HP Embedded Web Server (EWS). Use a web
browser to monitor status, configure network
parameters, or access device features.
Control color access
Use HP Web Jetadmin
13
and the HP Universal
Print Driver
22
to assign color access by user,
time of day, or application, or disallow color
output completely until it’s needed for special
projects. People who truly need to leverage the
power of color—such as your sales team and
marketing department—can, while others
automatically default to black-and-white
output.
