Printer Status pane

This pane can be used to monitor the state of PostScript and PCL printers. It contains general printer information, such as the printer's B&W or color settings, as well as the quantity of paper in trays, any outstanding alerts or errors and whether the printer is currently in use, or awaiting a job. An example of this can be seen in the following image:

To Start monitoring a printer select the start icon to the right of the status display: 

To Stop monitoring a printer select the stop icon to the right of the status display:

Once a printer is being monitored, the details can expanded and the individual printer trays displayed. These can be done as follows:

  • To expand the printer details, press the right arrow besides the printer Name, as seen in the following image.
  • To reduce the printer details, press the down arrow besides the printer Name, as seen in the following image.

If SNMP monitoring is enabled on a printer, then printer issues will pause the Job Queue pane for that printer.
