hrprinterdetectederrorstate
1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.9.4.2.3.3.5.1.2
This object represents any error conditions
detected by the printer. The error conditions are
encoded as bits in an octet string, with the
following definitions:
Condition Bit # hrDeviceStatus
lowPaper 0 warning(3)
noPaper 1 down(5)
lowToner 2 warning(3)
noToner 3 down(5)
doorOpen 4 down(5)
jammed 5 down(5)
offline 6 down(5)
serviceRequested 7 warning(3)
If multiple conditions are currently detected and
the hrDeviceStatus would not otherwise be
unknown(1) or testing(4), the hrDeviceStatus shall
correspond to the worst state of those indicated,
where down(5) is worse than warning(3) which is
worse than running(2).
Bits are numbered starting 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 one bit encodes that
the condition was detected, while a zero bit
encodes that the condition was not detected.
This object is useful for alerting an operator to
specific warning or error conditions that may
occur, especially those requiring human
intervention.
Refer to RFC 1514, Host Resources MIB, for more details.
Additional information:
LaserJet 4500 reports error conditions as follows:
lowPaper -- A tray is empty, but the media to be loaded is not
currently needed.
hrDeviceStatus = eHwarning;
hrPrinterStatus = eHidle or eHprinting;
a non-critical alert is active.
noPaper -- A tray is empty and must be filled for printing to
continue.
hrDeviceStatus = eHdown;
hrPrinterStatus = eHother;
a critical alert is active.
lowToner -- Toner is almost gone. The quality of printed pages may begin
to deteriorate until the toner is completely gone.
hrDeviceStatus = eHwarning;
hrPrinterStatus = eHidle or eHprinting;
a non-critical alert is active.
noToner -- One or more of the toners is depleted.
hrDeviceStatus = eHdown;
hrPrinterStatus = eHother;
A critical alert is active.
doorOpen -- A printer cover or door is open.
hrDeviceStatus = eHdown;
hrPrinterStatus = eHother;
a critical alert is active.
jammed -- Paper is jammed and the printer will be unable to continue
printing until the jam is cleared.
hrDeviceStatus = eHdown;
hrPrinterStatus = eHother;
a critical alert is active.
offline -- Printer is offline and will not accept new print jobs until
it is online again.
hrDeviceStatus = eHdown;
hrPrinterStatus = eHother;
a critical alert is active.
serviceRequested -- Any status or error condition not listed
above. If the condition prevents printing, the 'offline'
bit is also set and its hrDeviceStatus and hrPrinterStatus
would prevail.
hrDeviceStatus = eHwarning;
hrPrinterStatus = eHidle or eHprinting;
a non-critical alert is active.
