Introducing the HP Jetdirect Network Projector Manager

System Overview

The Jetdirect network projector manager is a network server module that connects to the USB port of a Jetdirect-compatible HP digital projector to provide network access to that projector. This enables a system administrator to monitor and manage this and any other connected projectors from a remote location. The administrator can use a standard Web browser to manage individual projectors, or use free HP Web Jetadmin software to manage many projectors.

The network projector manager includes a USB 2.0 port, and is compatible with the following networks and projectors:

● Ethernet (IEEE 802.3i 10Base-T) and Fast Ethernet (IEEE 802.3u

100Base-TX) networks. See “Specifications supported network protocols.

● HP vp6300 series digital projectors (firmware version 2.000 or later), and

newer models of non-mobile HP business projectors. For a list of compatible projectors, go to www.hp.com/support Jetdirect model number.

” on page 14.

Mounting the Module (Optional)

You can mount the server module on the projector or on any nearby smooth, clean surface. The attachment strips separate to allow you to remove the module temporarily.

1. Decide where to mount the server module on the projector or other surface:

■ Make sure the mounting surface is flat, smooth, and clean.

■ Do not block any vents, controls, or access panels on the projector.

■ Make sure the cables from the module do not interfere with controls or

access panels on the projector.

2. Peel the backing paper off one side of an attachment strip.

Note Do not separate the two halves of the strip.

3. Attach the strip along the top or bottom edge of the label on the bottom of the server module. Press firmly to get full adhesion.

Note Do not cover the module’s serial number.

4. Attach the other strip to the opposite edge of the label as described above.

5. Clean the projector or other surface where you intend to mount the module.

Using Web Jetadmin

HP Web Jetadmin is a simple peripheral-management application for remotely installing, configuring, and managing a wide variety of HP and non-HP printers and HP projectors through a standard Web browser. You can use Web Jetadmin to proactively solve problems before they affect user productivity. You can download this software for free at www.hp.com/go/webjetadmin

Web Jetadmin supports the management of Jetdirect-compatible HP projectors. Support for projectors requires HP Web Jetadmin version 7.8 or greater, along with the HP Web Jetadmin application plug-in for digital projectors. We recommend using the latest version, which may provide enhanced functionality.

Web Jetadmin provides access to all the functions of the embedded Web server — and it supports many operations on groups of projectors. For complete information, go to www.hp.com/go/webjetadmin
