Analyzing Printer Usage
MaiLinX Alerts
MaiLinX alerts enable the printer to automatically send email to the system administrator and others under the following conditions:
■When printer errors, warnings, and alerts occur.
■When the printer requires attention (for example, when service is required or supplies need to be replenished).
■When a reply to a CentreWare IS Remote Internet Printing message is desired. For more information about CentreWare IS Remote Internet printing, click the Help button in CentreWare IS to go to CentreWare IS Online Help.
