The device group of the HR MIB

The hrDevicegroup of the host resources MIB includes the following supported objects:

  • hrDeviceTable

    The hrDeviceGroup has only one entry of the hrDeviceTable which refers to the printer including the PRISMAsync Print Server.

  • hrPrinterTable

    The hrDeviceGroup has only one entry of the hrPrinterTable which refers to the printer but without the PRISMAsync Print Server.

Each hrDeviceEntry consists of the following objects:

  • hrDeviceIndex

  • hrDeviceType

  • hrDeviceDescr

  • hrDeviceId

  • hrDeviceStatus

  • hrDeviceErrors

Each hrPrinterEntry consists of the following objects:

  • hrPrinterStatus

  • hrPrinterDetectedErrorState

hrDeviceIndex

Index "1" represents the hrDevicePrinter entry in the hrDeviceTable.

hrDeviceType

This object returns the value 5 ("hrDevicePrinter").

hrDeviceDescr

A textual description of the device with the following format:

<Manufacturer>, <Printer name>

hrDeviceID

An OID string identifies the printer type.

Remarks:

  1. The SNMP agent cannot return the hrPrinterStatus states "warm-up" and "other". These states have been mapped to "idle". This was done to keep compatibility with the IBM NPM application.

  2. The error condition "output tray missing" is reported when: "output full" for the external finisher in combination with state "offline". For example, external finisher powered off.

  3. The condition "offline" (no submission possible) is reported when ALL the configured submission protocols are disabled. If only one protocol is configured, the hrPrinterDetectedErrorState will be offline if this protocol is disabled.

  4. None-critical alert conditions do not cause a "Supplies not available" printer status. The reason is that varioPRINT 6000 series can still print jobs in these cases. For example, toner low, output tray missing, output full for the external finisher, stapler empty or paper tray empty are none-critical alert conditions.

  5. Preparing printer status means that an operator interacts with the printer using the control panel but does not print yet.

hrPrinterStatus

This object returns the current printer status. See the "Printer status overview" table directly above.

hrPrinterDetectedErrorState

This object returns any error condition detected by the PRISMAsync Print Server. See the "Printer status overview" table directly above.

The error conditions are encoded as bits in an octet string with the following definitions:

Error condition

Bit #

Low paper

0

No paper

1

Low toner

2

No toner

3

Door open

4

Jammed

5

Offline

6

Service requested

7

Paper tray missing

8

Output tray missing

9

Marker supply missing

10

Output near full

11

Output full

12

Paper tray empty

13

Overdue preventive maintenance

14

Bit numbers start with the most significant bit of the first byte being bit 0, the least significant bit of the first byte being bit 7, the most significant bit of the second byte being bit 8, and so on. A bit with value one means that the condition was detected, while a bit with value zero means that the condition was not detected.
