HP LaserJet 8150 Printer series - Manual (Page 25)

Configuring the Printer with the Device Pages 21
Alerts
From the Alerts page, the system administrator can set up the printer to
send problem and status alerts to anyone through e-mail. More than one
individual can receive alerts, with each person receiving only specific
alerts. For example, an administrative assistant might be responsible for
keeping toner loaded in a printer or fixing paper jams, while major
consumables are handled by an external service provider. Alerts can be
set up so the administrative assistant gets advanced warning on toner low
situations, and the external service provider gets alerts on fusers, print
drums, and transfer belts.
Note
For step-by-step instructions on setting up the printer to send an e-mail
alert, see page 46.
Note
Some of the embedded web server features require a permanent storage
device (such as a hard disk) in order to set up and retain specific
information on a permanent basis. This applies to the Alerts feature, as
discussed below.
The screen below shows the Alerts page and options with a permanent
storage device. With a hard disk you can set up four different lists, with up
to 20 notification recipients on each of the four lists. For more information,
see page 24.
Opens a new window for the Security Page.
Outgoing Mail must be selected on the
Security page for alerts to work. Exit the
Security page to return to the Alerts page.
Opens a new window for the Email page. Here
you can verify that the SMTP (Simple Mail
Transfer Protocol) server is set up correctly.
(Alerts will not work if the SMTP server is not
set up correctly.) Exit the Email page to return
to the Alerts page.
