monitor status, configure network parameters,
or access device features.
Efficiently manage from a central location
The HP LaserJet Enterprise M506 printer series is supported by HP Web Jetadmin,
17
an
HP JetAdvantage Management Solution. This single solution allows you to efficiently manage a wide
variety of networked and PC-connected devices, including printers, multifunction products, and
scanners. Remotely install, configure, troubleshoot, safeguard, and manage your devices—
ultimately increasing business productivity by helping you save time, control costs, protect your
assets, and provide a better return on your investment. Easily integrate new HP LaserJet Pro and
Enterprise devices without having to upgrade HP Web Jetadmin. A universal plug-in lets you support
most features of new devices and apply corporate policies in one step—helping to save time and
simplify device management.

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—or

Make it easy for all to print with one common driver
The HP Universal Print Driver enables both mobile Microsoft device users and traditional desktop
users to access the full features of nearly every HP device in your managed printing environment
without the need for assistance.
26
Eliminate the clutter on your computer by replacing multiple print drivers with one versatile
solution. Empower IT by dramatically reducing the number of drivers they have to manage—and by
giving them the tools they need to improve efficiency. With the HP UPD, your IT team can easily
adjust device settings to help reduce printing costs, improve security, and help meet environmental
goals. For example, it’s simple to push two-sided printing or quicker sleep times across the fleet.
Plus, the valuable tools in the HP UPD Printer Administrator’s Resource Kit help you save time and
money by streamlining IT tasks, implementing printing policies, and monitoring usage across the
enterprise. You can also use the HP UPD in tandem with HP Web Jetadmin to create fleet-wide
managed printer lists, reports, and more.
