Printer Marker Alert

Printer Marker alert provide monitoring of printer marker supplies (refer to RFC 3805 and, particularly, section 2.2.6. Markers there for details). The alert is configured using Marker Supplies Type and Threshold parameters. It triggers when level of the specified marker is reduced below the threshold. The values available in Marker Supplies Type field depend on the specific printer type (see PrtMarkerSuppliesTypeTC in RFC 3805).

For example, Sharp MX-2300N printer reveals five marker types: Black Toner, Waste Toner, Black Photoconductive Drum, Black Developer, and Fusing Unit. In turn, the threshold units depend on the selected marker type (see PrtMarkerSuppliesSupplyUnitTC in RFC 3805). For example, Black Toner unit for Sharp MX-2300N printer is percents.

Iotellect Network Manager uses prtMarkerSuppliesTable SNMP variable to monitor current marker supplies values.
