printQAction
Module: BSDUNIX-MIB
OID (symbolic): BSDUNIX-MIB::printQAction
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.4.6.1.1.5
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-write
Description: A control variable used to trigger an action on a queue in the printer table. When read, this variable always returns the most recent value that it was previously set to. If it has not been set since the last initialization of the network management subsystem on the node, it returns a value of `other'.
When set, this variable causes the queue to undertake the indicated action:
abort - terminate the current job printing in the queue and disable printing other jobs
clean - remove incomplete jobs from the queue
enable - enable spooling on the queue
disable - disable spooling on the queue
restart - restart printing from the queue
start - start printing from the queue
stop - stop printing from the queue after the current job completes printing
What is printQAction?
A read-write control variable that allows an SNMP manager to trigger administrative actions on a printer queue, such as enabling, disabling, or clearing it. Reading it returns the most recently set action value.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4.6.1.1.5 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> BSDUNIX-MIB::printQAction
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4.6.1.1.5.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> BSDUNIX-MIB::printQAction.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4.6.1.1.5.1 i <value>
SNMPv3 example:
snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> printQAction.1
