Hi Nagios team,

i want to monitor our company printers which are different models : HP , Brother , EPSON , ... using this plugin which i see its popular and has many positive feedbacks so i have 2 questions :

1- i just didn't understand well how the printer status gonna be checked , did i need to install an snmp agent in the printer software ?
2- This plugin work with any model of printers ? because i didn't see any plugin who support EPSON printers .

thanks nagios team for all the support

Yes, you will need to install the SNMP agent on the printer

Yes, it should work with most printers that have SNMP agents as they can be checked with standard SNMP OIDS
