Re: Printing, Personal Computing and Mobile Boards migrating to HP Support Forums

I agree this is not being handled well. I respect the opinion that mixing home users with enterprise users has some drawbacks, but there are questions pertaining to the same products and issues across both communities. This is the main drawback of having separate communities. I initially joined several years ago and inadvertently ended up with an account in both groups. I didn't discover that until I came back switching back to HP after spending several years using another vendor. I would prefer that both communities and the respective accounts be merged completely.

This can not be done for legal reasons.

Going forward there will be two separate companies and two forums.

And all your PC/mobile topics have been moved to the Support forum.

 

Or do you now have two accounts in the Support forum due to the move and you want them merged?

If so, you need to ask there.

Re: Printing, Personal Computing and Mobile Boards migrating to HP Support Forums

I think you've hit on the eternal question regarding online forums: When do you divide, and when do you combine? Most times, those decisions are driven by much larger forces.

 

We went through very similar feedback when we merged the Business Support Center and IT Resource Center into the Enterprise Business Community several years ago. We heard that some people liked the fact that they did not have to go to three different places to ask questions about the same product, while others did not prefer the interplay between home, small business, and enterprise users. The legacy sites had many appreciative users, but did not offer the same security or other features of our current platform. Maintaining multiple sites covering the same data  generates information disconnects, and leads to the same questions being asked multiple times, sometimes with overlapping or conflicting solutions. 

 

Thank you for sharing feedback with us,

Into limbo. :-)

Your topic is here:

http://h30499.www3.hp.com/t5/Your-Questions-Regarding-HP/LaserJet-2100M-printing-issue/m-p/6763440

 

As stated there, you need to use the HP Support Forum:

Can you please note where Web Jetadmin subfourm has moved to? I am unsure based on what you are showing in your screenshot.

> Can you please note where Web Jetadmin subfourm has moved to? 

There is no longer a dedicated WebJet Admin subforum on the new consumer website. 

I'd like to think the most appropriate area would be JetAdvantage sub found here: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/JetAdvantage-Printing-Applications-and-Services/bd-p/JetAdvantage

"Questions about HP JetAdvantage or other printing applications and services from HP? "

The most recent WJA posts appear to be under the generic printer software and drivers sub found here: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-Software-and-Drivers/bd-p/Software

"Have questions on how to install a driver, or print from an application, post a question here."

Otherwise for the most exposure you could try your luck with the generic laserjet subs and provide propper tagging in hopes of attracting someone who can comment on your problem.

 

Kudo's appreciated : ) (The purple thumbs up)
