clntPrinterStatus

Module: CLIENT-MIB

OID (symbolic): CLIENT-MIB::clntPrinterStatus

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.50.2.5.1.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-only

Description: The current status of this printer device. When in the idle(3), printing(4), or warmup(5) state, the corresponding clntDeviceStatus should be running(2) or warning(3). When in the unknown state, the corresponding clntDeviceStatus should be unknown(1).

What is clntPrinterStatus?

This read-only enumerated value reports a printer device's status as other(1), unknown(2), idle(3), printing(4), or warmup(5), and the description notes that idle, printing, or warmup should correspond to a running or warning clntDeviceStatus, while unknown should correspond to an unknown clntDeviceStatus. An administrator uses it to see exactly what a client's printer is doing at the moment, beyond the generic device status. For example, a printer reporting warmup(5) for an extended period would prompt the administrator to check whether the printer is having trouble completing its startup cycle.
