RE: Using SNMP driver with HP Jetdirect 300x

[Paul Tykodi <ptykodi@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Charles,

I think the error messages generated by the IBM host
when the SNMP driver doesn't work are generally good
at directing you to the cause of the difficulty.

I would suggest making sure SNMP is enabled in the
300x, that a community name of Public exists in its
SNMP setup, and that the parallel port connection to
the printer is bi-directionally enabled in its
configuration as well (ECP or EPP port definition -
not Centronics compatible). If all these items are OK,
try building a printer description on the IBM host
using the SNMP driver.

If you get a failure again, post the error messages
and then we can see what problem or problems are
visible to your IBM host.

HTH

Best Regards,

/Paul
