ppmPrinterNumberOfPorts

Module: PRINTER-PORT-MONITOR-MIB

OID (symbolic): PRINTER-PORT-MONITOR-MIB::ppmPrinterNumberOfPorts

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.2699.1.2.1.2.1.1.4

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Gauge32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of printer ports supported on this network printer, i.e., the number of entries in the 'ppmPortTable' below with a first index of 'ppmPrinterIndex', or zero if no printer ports are currently configured.

What is ppmPrinterNumberOfPorts?

This Gauge32 reports how many ports (rows in ppmPortTable keyed by this printer's ppmPrinterIndex) are available for reaching this specific printer, not the whole system. An admin troubleshooting connectivity to one printer can check this value to know how many distinct submission paths (e.g., LPR, raw TCP) that printer exposes before searching the port table. For example, a printer reachable via both an LPR queue and a raw port-9100 connection would report 2 here.
