Printer Status and Alerts The HP Color LaserJet 9500 printing-system software includes a utility called Printer Status and Alerts that you can use to monitor print jobs and printer status from the desktop. The Printer Status and Alerts feature provides printer and job status information such as printing history, job progress, toner and paper levels, and consumables and supplies reordering information, and presents a simulated view of the printer control panel. This utility offers several options for configuring pop-up windows to view the status of the printer and of individual print jobs. Printer Status and Alerts is a selectable component of Custom Installation. To install Printer Status and Alerts, select Custom Installation, and then select the Printer Status and Alerts check box. Printer Status and Alerts features are available for printers that have a connection that supports bidirectional functionality, whether directly or over a network. The Printer Status and Alerts feature cannot be installed over infrared (IR) or serial ports. See "Bidirectional communication." For Windows 95, the Microsoft Winsock2 patch must first be installed. To download the Microsoft Winsock2 patch, go to: http://www.microsoft.com/windows95/downloads/contents/WUAdminTools/S_WUNetworkingTools/ W95Sockets2/Default.asp HP Printer Status and Alerts communicates with the printer only during an active print job, which minimizes network traffic. The following restrictions apply to HP products that use Printer Status and Alerts: • Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 do not support Printer Status and Alerts with terminal servers. • For Device Status (printer icons in the status window), your computer must have Internet Explorer version 4.72.x or later installed. To find the version number, open Internet Explorer, click Help, and then click About Internet Explorer. Internet Explorer is not necessary for getting status about jobs. You can install Internet Explorer after installing Printer Status and Alerts. • Netscape browsers do not support HP Printer Status and Alerts. • On a few programs, such as Microsoft Excel and Seagate Crystal Reports, multiple copies of the same document show up in the Printer Status and Alerts window as separate jobs. This is because these programs actually send each copy as a separate job. Software Technical Reference ENWW Technology background information 39
