Network Printer Status Utility
Windows
• Available on TCP/IP network connection only.
The Network Printer Status utility is available if your administrator has
installed it.
If the utility is installed, the printer driver Properties dialog box
changes.
• a new Status tab is added.
• an Option button is added to the Device Option tab.
This utility allows you to view (but not change) the status of the
following on the Status tab:
• paper trays installed and the media assigned to them.
• total size and percentage used of disk/memory.
• percentage of toner remaining.
Important!
If you select Automatic Status Update in the
Status tab, the driver automatically pings the printer
for the latest status information every time you open
the Properties dialog box.
This causes a significant delay until the Properties
dialog box opens.
To avoid this, use the Update Status button in the
Status tab to manually update the information on
demand.
