ppmGeneralNumberOfPrinters
Module: PRINTER-PORT-MONITOR-MIB
OID (symbolic): PRINTER-PORT-MONITOR-MIB::ppmGeneralNumberOfPrinters
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.2699.1.2.1.1.2
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Gauge32
Access: read-only
Description: The number of printers supported on this network system, i.e., the number of entries in the 'ppmPrinterTable' below, or zero if no printers are currently configured.
What is ppmGeneralNumberOfPrinters?
This Gauge32 reports how many printers are currently configured on the network system, matching the row count of the ppmPrinterTable. An admin can poll this single value to quickly check whether any printers are registered before walking the full printer table, since a value of zero means no printers exist yet. For instance, if a print server has three USB printers shared over the network, this object would return 3.
