Summary

This message is a result of a state change and shows the status of the printer. The status can be one of the following three types:

Success: If the status is success, the printer has returned to a normal state.

Warning: A Warning message refers to an event that is not necessarily significant, but may indicate a possible future problem. If the status is warning, the printer is reporting a warning state.

Critical: A Critical message refers to a significant event that indicates actual or imminent loss of data or loss of functionality. The Dell Printer could be in a Critical State for the following reasons:

  • The device has detected a failure state.

  • The device is offline

  • The device is not responding to the SNMP Probe

  • The community string has changed and this Monitor has not been updated

Causes

Warning: The cause for a Warning status may be that a printer agent is reporting a warning state.

Critical: The cause for a Critical status may be that a printer agent has detected a failure state.

Resolutions

Launch the printer console to troubleshoot the problem.

When the issue has been resolved, the status changes to Success in the next polling cycle.
