The Print Server supports SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol). This allows network supervisors to monitor and control the Print Server using network management platforms such as HP OpenView, IBM SystemView, etc.

The appropriate MIB file must be imported into your SNMP management pro- gram using the Import-Compile command. Check your management program for details on this procedure. The MIB file is provided in the Mib folder on the CD-ROM. The name of the file is Mib2p.mib.
