What is prtInputType?

This read-only value identifies the feeder mechanism technology (such as sheet feed, continuous feed, or roll feed) used by a given input tray or sub-unit. An admin or management app uses it to know what kind of media-handling behavior to expect from that particular input source.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.43.8.2.1.2
