Monitor printers without Web JetAdmin

TheSimNoob — Thu, 29 Nov 2007 14:24:22 GMT

Is there any way to monitor our printers for problems such as low tower and run report on page counts without the need for Web JetAdmin?

We've setup SNMP and SNMP-traps on our jetdirect card, but SIM still isn't able to alert us the toner is low (the traps were setup after the toner was already showing as low).

After speaking with HP, it became clear that Web JetAdmin's SIM integration is truly nothing more than a glorified shortcut/link to open up the JetAdmin app within SIM. It does nothing to increase SIM's monitoring capabilities.

Absolute worst case, we'll install Web JetAdmin 10.0 and monitor our printers that way. Even tho 10.0 isn't able to be 'intregrated' within SIM, it sounds like the only thing we lose over 8.x is the glorified shortcut within SIM.
