In this way, the User knows whether or not a print job has been successful. Also, the User
knows what problems have been encountered while processing the print job. Printing using
Ethernet works in a manner similar to the USB-connected PC/Printer.

Reviewing the Web Page Server

An HTTP service serves web pages that provide an interface through which to configure and
monitor the Printer. (Note: Users may also monitor all print jobs that have been sent to the
Printer from any client PC.)

Reviewing the Network Management Interface

The Ethernet enabled Printer operates as an SNMP agent to allow central administrators to
monitor and configure the network interface and the Printer. (Note: A standard host MIB-II is
implemented to maximize the utility of the Printer on the network.)

Reviewing the Telnet Server

The Ethernet interface has a command line interpreter. (Note: The User can connect to the
Printer using a Telnet session on their PC, issue commands to the Printer and receive
response from the Printer.)

The Telnet commands are primarily used for network administration, and they will not be
used by most Users. (Note: These commands will query the state of the Printer and
configure various settings for the Printer. These include network settings, logging setting,
User names and User passwords.)

Network Management Interface

The SNMP interface is described below.

Interface Description

SNMP

• The Ethernet interface is a fully-manageable SNMP agent that

supports MIB-II.

• The Ethernet interface is MIB II compliant, allowing SNMP managers

to monitor protocol, network and routing statistics.
