Receiving printer status (optional)
Syslog
The Syslog facility provides a dynamic path for printer status information
that allows administrators to collect information from the printer.
By sending the appropriate PostScript Þle to the printer, you can set a
threshold indicating which priority level of message from the printer will be
sent to the listed log host.
The threshold is a number listed in the following table. The priorities listed
in the table conform to BSD and SunOS conventions.
