Module: PRINTER-PORT-MONITOR-MIB
OID (symbolic): PRINTER-PORT-MONITOR-MIB::ppmPrinterSnmpQueryEnabled
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.2699.1.2.1.2.1.1.8
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Access: read-only
Description: The status query mode for this printer, for queries by monitoring applications in the IETF Host Resources MIB (RFC 1514/2790) and/or IETF Printer MIB (RFC 1759/3805).
If this object is 'true', then monitoring applications MAY attempt status queries for this printer in the IETF Host Resources MIB and/or IETF Printer MIB.
If this object is 'false', then monitoring applications MUST NOT attempt status queries for this printer in the IETF Host Resources MIB and/or IETF Printer MIB.
What is ppmPrinterSnmpQueryEnabled?
This TruthValue flag tells monitoring applications whether they are permitted to issue SNMP status queries against this printer's Host Resources and Printer MIB objects. Admins toggle this to control status polling load or avoid querying printers that don't support or welcome extra SNMP traffic; when false, monitoring tools must skip status checks for this printer entirely. For example, setting this to 'false' for an older printer that locks up under heavy SNMP polling would stop a monitoring dashboard from querying its toner and paper-tray status.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
