Adding and editing a Printer Monitor
This monitor uses SNMP to collect data on SNMP-enabled network printers. If a failure criteria
is met, any associated actions fire. For example, you can monitor for printer ink levels, for a
paper jam, for low input media (paper), for a fuse that is over temperature, and more.
Important: In order for the Printer Active Monitor to work, in addition to being SNMPenabled,
the printer you are attempting to monitor must also support the Standard Printer
MIB.
