Description: 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: Here is the table from the general description, above, rewritten with formatting to make it more easily readable.

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)

The HP LaserJet 2100 Series reports error conditions as follows:

noPaper -- A tray is empty and must be filled for printing to continue. hrDeviceStatus = eHdown; hrPrinterStatus = eHother; A critical alert is active.

coverOpen -- A cover or door is open. hrDeviceStatus = eHdown; hrPrinterStatus = eHother; A critical alert is active.

jammed -- A jam condition is preventing printing. hrDeviceStatus = eHdown; hrPrinterStatus = eHother; A critical alert is active.

offline -- Printer is offline and will not accept new print jobs until it is online. This condition is rare in the HP LaserJet 2100 Series and may indicate some other error. hrDeviceStatus = eHdown; hrPrinterStatus = eHother; A critical alert is active.

serviceRequested -- Any status or error condition not listed above. These fall into two categories: (1) If the condition prevents printing, the 'offline' bit is also set and status values are as for offline. i.e.: hrDeviceStatus = eHdown; hrPrinterStatus = eHother; A critical alert is active. (2) If the condition does not prevent printing the status values are: hrDeviceStatus = eHwarning; hrPrinterStatus = eHidle or eHprinting; A non-critical alert is active.

lowToner -- The HP LaserJet 2100 Series does not report this condition.

noToner -- The HP LaserJet 2100 Series does not report this condition.
