prtGeneralServicePerson
Module: Printer-MIB
OID (symbolic): Printer-MIB::prtGeneralServicePerson
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.43.5.1.1.5
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: OCTET STRING
Access: read-write
Description: The name of the person responsible for servicing this printer. It is suggested that this string include information that would enable other humans to reach the service person, such as a phone number. As a convention to facilitate automatic notification of the operator by the agent or network management station, the phone number, fax number or email address should be indicated by the URL schemes 'tel:', 'fax:' and 'mailto:', respectively. If either the phone, fax, or email information is not available, then a line should not
be included for this information.
NOTE: For interoperability purposes, it is advisable to use email addresses formatted per [RFC2822] requirements.
NOTE: The above description has been modified from RFC 1759 for clarification.
What is prtGeneralServicePerson?
This read-write string holds the name (and optionally contact info such as a tel:, fax:, or mailto: URL) of the person responsible for servicing the printer. Facilities or IT staff typically set this so a management station or another technician can see, e.g., "Jane Doe tel:+1-555-0100" and know who to call when the device needs service.
