Hopefully this will save someone a lot of time.Hello and IT Ox, thanks for returning to the post with your positive update. Your emails will now contain the correct link to launch the admin interface. I also had to modify the location of ‘set OSQL’ in this script due to my non-standard installation. Run the restore script and allow it to overwrite the existing database. Once you have the backup, open the file ‘HP.config.xml‘ in the Settings\WjaService\config folder and modify the IP address to the new address. I had to modify the location of ‘set OSQL’ in the script due to a non-standard installation. In the c:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\HP Web Jetadmin 10\WJABackupRestore folder run the backup script to produce a backup set.

To cut to the chase, the solution is really simple. In the end I got the software re-installed, only to find it was still hooked into the old database and the old information. It was still using the old IP address which was no longer valid.Īfter ‘googling’ for the solution without luck, I tried several approaches, some of which got me into a bit of a mess with the database.

For example, if the toner is low or there is a paper jam, it can alert you, allowing you to be proactive with support. HP Web JetAdmin is software that monitors network attached printers and provides alerts when certain conditions are met.
