Module: LaserJet-Series4000-MIB

OID (symbolic): LaserJet-Series4000-MIB::prtgeneralprintername

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.9.4.2.2.5.1.1.16

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: OCTET STRING

Access: read-write

Description: An administrator-specified name for this printer. Depending upon implementation of this printer, the value of this object may or may not be same as the value for the MIB-II 'SysName' object. Refer to Internet Draft Printer MIB, expiring Sept. 1997 for more details. Additional information: The maximum supported string length is 32 characters. Length of 32 was chosen so a phone number could be included with the name. If the user-entered string is too long, the device will store as much as possible and will return the status. The value of this object is saved over a power cycle.

What is prtgeneralprintername?

Read-write administrator-assigned name for the printer, up to 32 characters, persisted across power cycles; the 32-character limit was chosen so a phone number could be included alongside the name. An admin sets this to a human-friendly label so the device is easy to identify in printer-management tools.
