Chapter 12 Configuring for a *LAN 3812 SNMP Device Description Port number (PORT) This needs to be set to 9100. Font (FONT) = 011 This is typically set to 011, which is the default 10 CPI font. A font ID is required to create the device description. Unless special requirements in your operation dictate something different, this should suffice. Form Feed (FORMFEED) This should be set to *CONT. Leaving this set at *TYPE or setting it to the wrong value can cause problems with both drawer selection and paper size. Printer Error Message (PRTERRMSG) This defaults to *INQ, but can be set to *INFO so the printer's message queue will receive informational messages whenever possible. If this is set to *INQ and a problem occurs on the printer (such as out of forms or a paper jam) a message will be sent to the printer's message queue that must be answered before printing can continue. Activation Timer (ACTTMR) This defaults to 170 (seconds), but can be set to any value from 1 to 2550 seconds (or 42.5 minutes). The activation timer refers to the amount of time for the system to wait for the LAN-attached printer device to respond before ending a connection attempt. If the printer refuses a connection attempt by the host for any reason before the timer expires, it will be considered not available and an error message will post. 244
