a JAMc is found, the HP Smart Device Agent Base is securely upgraded to a full Smart Device Agent from JAMc,
which will then allow printed pages to be accounted for in a Managed Print Services (MPS) account. The driveronly web packs downloaded from www.hp.com for the printer and installed through the Add Printer wizard do
