An SNMP based command line network printer management tool.
|
|
|
|
Modern network printers are quite easily managable across a network.
|
|
However, until now, the only tools that make use of these capabilities
|
|
are the vendor supplied products such as Web JetAdmin by HP, Marknet by
|
|
Lexmark, Centreview by Xerox or PhaserLink by Tektronix. The problem is
|
|
that all of these tools are fundamentally GUI based applications and
|
|
there is no way to incorporate their functionality into scripts. This
|
|
program is designed to be called from scripts to find things out about
|
|
printers.
|
|
|
|
Information you can gather about printers with npadmin:
|
|
Model and vendor, Location and contact information,
|
|
Network configuration, Memory and disk usage, Max and min papersize,
|
|
Engine speed, Duplexer installed, Printer status, Printer languages,
|
|
Marker technology, Page count, Minimum margins,
|
|
Size, capacity and level of paper trays, Toner levels, Alert conditions,
|
|
Resolution, Display information, Cover pages on/off.
