<ol type="1">
|
||
|
|
<li>Ensure that you have satisfied the following requirements:
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>The printer must support the Host Resource Management Information Base
|
||
|
|
(Host Resources MIB, RFC1514). The printer should also support the Printer
|
||
|
|
Management Information Base (Printer MIB, RFC1759). For a list of printers
|
||
|
|
that are known to support SNMP, see the <a href="http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=110&uid=nas1dae2e6b32726a0f386256f0300551dbd" target="_blank">IBM® knowledge
|
||
|
|
base document</a>
|
||
|
|
<img src="www.gif" alt="Link outside Information Center" /> "Support for Various ASCII
|
||
|
|
Printers" (search for the document title at www.ibm.com/support/).</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>If the printer is connected to a network interface card, the network interface
|
||
|
|
card must be compatible with the Host Resource Management Information Base
|
||
|
|
(Host Resources MIB, RFC1514).</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>If the printer is connected to an external network adapter that has more
|
||
|
|
than one port, the printer should be connected to the first parallel port
|
||
|
|
and there should be no other SNMP-capable devices attached to the network
|
||
|
|
adapter.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>The printer and any network adapter must be set to have, at a minimum,
|
||
|
|
a community name of public. The community name of public is typically a factory
|
||
|
|
default setting. Community names are a means of access control for SNMP devices.
|
||
|
|
Read-only access to the public community is sufficient.</li></ul></li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Use the Create Device Description (Printer) (<a href="../cl/crtdevprt.htm">CRTDEVPRT</a>) CL command to create a printer device description. From a character-based
|
||
|
|
interface, type <tt class="xph">CRTDEVPRT</tt>.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>On the Create Device Description (Printer) Display, press F9 to display
|
||
|
|
all parameters.</li>

<li>Specify the following values:
