Description: LaserJet-Series8100-MIB module

Start monitoring vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, any SNMPv3-capable network device (SNMP engine identity/boot/clock status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.

What Is LaserJet-Series8100-MIB?

LaserJet-Series8100-MIB is a Hewlett-Packard proprietary SNMP MIB for the HP LaserJet 8100 series printer, extending the standard Printer MIB with device-specific control, identity, and status objects under the hp/hpsystem enterprise branch. It exposes printer configuration objects (sleep-mode, on-off-line, auto-continue behavior, supported localization languages/countries), device identity and firmware objects (model-number, serial-number, device-location, fw-rom-datecode), and status/error objects (background-status-msg lines, error-log-clear). It is explicitly used to monitor hardware and software status: fw-rom-datecode reports the firmware ROM build/version date, background-status-msg lines surface the printer's live human-readable state, and on-off-line/sleep-mode report power and connectivity status, together giving a full software-version and operational-status picture of the device. As an HP proprietary companion to the standard IETF Printer MIB (RFC 1759), it supplements that MIB's job/tray/alert data model rather than replacing it. It is deployed on HP LaserJet 8100-series printers in office/enterprise environments managed by HP or third-party print-management tools that poll the LaserJet-Series8100-MIB MIB.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in LaserJet-Series8100-MIB. Use the built-in SNMP Monitoring Browser to explore available variables, view their current values and descriptions, and select the objects you want to monitor. You can then create SNMP monitors, configure thresholds, and receive alerts when monitored values change.

Supported Devices

  • HP LaserJet 8100 series printer

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would poll fw-rom-datecode to confirm which firmware revision a given printer is running before rolling out a firmware update fleet-wide, and check background-status-msg-line1-part1/line2-part1 to read the current status text for a specific unit reporting print failures. on-off-line and sleep-mode reveal whether the device is reachable and active, while error-log-clear indicates whether a technician has recently cleared a logged fault, useful for confirming a reported problem was actually resolved.

What Can Be Monitored

  • firmware ROM date/version
  • printer status message text
  • online/offline state
  • sleep mode state
  • error log status
  • device model/serial identity

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using hrprinterstatus OID:

Select an HP LaserJet 8100 series printer as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type hrprinterstatus into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. The current status of this printer device. When in the idle(1), printing(2), or warmup(3) state, the corresponding hrDeviceStatus should be running(2) or warning(3). On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is an INTEGER-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the value is anything other than the normal idle/printing/warm-up cycle you expect for this printer, since most other values indicate an error condition. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
