14 IBM Network Printer Manager Overview SMART IBM Network Printer Manager (NPM) lets network administrators monitor, control, and configure IBM 4400 printers in various environments. NPM works with the IBM 4400, the network printer family, including IBM Infoprint 20 and 32 (except for NPM for OS/2), and IBM Network Printers 12, 17, and 24. For the Windows and IP and Web versions, you can also use NPM with other manufacturer's network printers that comply with RFC 1759, such as the Hewlett-Packard** LaserJet** 5si and the Lexmark** Optra** N. NOTE: IBM 4400 is supported only in the "web" and NT versions, not OS/2. Using NPM, administrators can: • View the status of each printer, such as its alarm conditions • View and change printer properties, such as the default input tray • View and change printer network properties, such as the NetBIOS printer network workgroup name • Add new network services to printers so you can customize the environment, such as creating high- and low-priority print services. NOTE: NPM requires the additional capabilities provided by the Smart Ethernet Interface. 257
