Note Printers that are involved with at least one active print job are queried for job status periodically according to the Status Check Rate setting. If an error or a warning condition is detected, the Printer Status and Alerts window automatically appears according to the Alerts options. Depending on the options you select, information in the status window changes for each job printed, each job completed, and each warning condition detected. Figure 9: Printer Status and Alerts options Note The appearance of the screen varies according to the HP Color LaserJet 9500 series printer and its configuration.
