Hey,

I was wondering how to test printers in ahm.
Documentation doesnt say much about printers.

Test ping on printqueue ?
Test on printshare ?
Test size of queue (< XXX MB) ?

Greets,

Some information can be obtained by "Performance Counter" test method. See "Print Queue" object.
If your network printer suports SNMP protocol, you may use "SNMP Get" test method to retrieve information directly from the printer. Manufacturer manuals should provide information about SNMP counters supported by the printer.

Regards
Alex
