PhaserLink Status Notification (Email Notification)
PhaserLink Status Notification allows 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).
■When a reply to a PhaserLink Remote Internet Printing message is desired. See the PhaserLink Remote Internet Printing User Manual for more information on PhaserLink Remote Internet printing.
This status notification capability is supplied by an SMTP (Simple Mail Transport
Protocol) client embedded in the printer’s firmware.
Three designated users can receive messages: SysAdmin, Service, and Key User. Printer messages reporting errors, alerts, and warnings can be individually assigned to any of these users. PhaserLink Printer Management Software provides three pages for controlling email printing:
■View and Configure PhaserLink Status Notification (Email Notification). Used to configure status notification parameters such as your email server’s IP address; addresses for SysAdmin, Service, and Key User message recipients; and preset subject line and message texts.
■View and Configure Email Message Settings. Controls which types of printer conditions generate messages to SysAdmin, Service, and Key User.
■View and Configure Email Custom Settings. Provides complete control of notification for every supported printer condition.
For complete information on status notification, including descriptions of all fields on all three pages, see the PhaserLink software help files.
