Zabbix Monitoring

[Alex-S]

Hello,

I hope someone can answer the next question in detail or knows what of this topic

An office-type printers Hewlett-Packard HP LaserJet P2055n should be involved in the Zabbix monitoring.
The printer is operational and already can be reached through the network

Question: What steps are necessary to the printer and on the Zabbix server to integrate the unit into the monitoring?

For a plausible answer I'd be really grateful

Greetings Alex


sorry my english is not very good.

hello,
Try to add the host (printer) first, after link the template "Template_HP_ColorLaserJet" to the host, go to "latest data" tab and see what items are supported by the printer.
If you need some special monitorization about it, you can make an snmpwalk to it.
snmpwalk -v2c -c <snmp-comunity> <Printer-IP>
And look forward the results to find the oid you need.
Hope this helps.

Where can i find the "latest data" tab?

It is a question from a questionnaire, which i have to answer as good as possible.
Unfortunately I have not heard anything yet about zabbix server or zabbix monitoring

thank you!

Make sure that snmp is enabled first on your printer before trying to monitor.
