Setting and Monitoring Alerts on Any Print Server

It is important to understand the relationship between the print server and the printer when you are establishing alerts. Here are the relationships you need to be aware of:

•Non-ZebraLink-enabled printers — can only send alerts on a specific set of printer errors that are reported in the IEEE 1284 protocol.

•ZebraLink-enabled printers — ZebraLink allows for the printer to send alerts outside of the IEEE 1284 protocol.

ZebraLink Alerts

ZebraLink Alerts give you the ability to manage your Zebra printers by immediately notifying System Administrators of printer error or warning conditions, which reduces printer downtime and increases application efficiency. Using Web-based configuration tools, selected errors or warning conditions can be routed to a variety of destinations such as email messages, wireless pagers, or ZebraLink Alerts.

Table 16 on page 65 shows the conditions that can trigger alerts and the possible destinations.
