Network Printer Status utility
•Available on TCP/IP network connection only.
The Network Printer Status utility is available if your administrator has installed it. If the utility is installed, you will see the following changes to the printer driver Properties dialog box:
•a new Status tab is added
•an Option button is added to the Device Option tab.
This utility allows you to view (but not change) the status of the following on the Status tab:
•paper trays installed and the media assigned to them.
•total size and percentage used of disk/memory.
•percentage of toner remaining.
Important!
If you select Automatic Status Update in the Status tab, the driver will automatically ping the printer for the latest status information every time you open the Properties dialog box. This causes a significant delay until the Properties box opens. To avoid this, use the Update Status button in the Status tab to manually update the information on demand.
