1Overview
Press at a Glance is an information tool that provides a number of reports about the status of the press.
These reports include information about press errors, paper jams, supply usage, press settings, and the
status of numerous press components. Press at a Glance provides a concise view for verifying the
proper functionality of the press.
You can access the Press at a Glance tool through the off-press home page or by using the on-press
interface.
Figure 1-1 HP Indigo PrintCare screen
If you access Press at a Glance through the off-press home page, a prompt appears asking you to select
the .pag data file for the session. The .pag file contains all the data used in the reports and graphs.
Browse to the appropriate .pag file, select it and click Open.
Figure 1-2 Open .pag file dialog
NOTE: You can also open Press at a Glance by using Windows Explorer to browse for a .pag file
and double-clicking on it. This action opens Press at a Glance using the selected .pag file.

7 Report display area: The information for the selected report is displayed here.
8 Graph display area: A graphical representation of the report data is displayed here.
Each report that features a table can be sorted by each of the column values. To sort a list, click on one
of the column headers. Each list can be sorted in ascending or descending order.
Some of the report drop-downs for graphical reports may display an “i” icon (
) next to the report name.
The icon indicates that one or more values charted in the report is outside of the normal operating range.
When you view the report, the graphs containing the value(s) outside of the normal operating range are
highlighted with a red border.
2 Chapter 1 Overview ENWW
Many graphs in the Press at a Glance reports feature a light gray band at the top and the bottom of the
graph (callout 1). These bands define the borders of the operational range for the chart. If a data values
appears within a gray band, then the value is outside of the normal operating range.
