Simple Network Management (SNMP) seems to be a popular subject over on the Xerox Community Support Forum. There are hundreds of views every month of solutions regarding the use and disabling of SNMP.  Let’s look at what the forum and the online support say about this protocol.

SNMP is used in network management systems to monitor and manage network-attached devices for conditions that require administrative attention. It consists of a set of standards for network management including an application layer, a database schema, and a set of data objects.

The SNMP is used to report issues such as the machine going offline or paper jam occurrences. Occasionally, SNMP Status will incorrectly report the machine as offline. The incorrect status will cause Microsoft Windows clients to stop printing. To resolve this issue, disable SNMP Status over the Standard TCP/IP Port.

With the release of every new generation of intelligent multi-function printers, the devices become less like copiers and more like the computers they actually are. Take apps, for instance. We use them all the time on phones and tablets. Now innovation brings more apps into the world of MFP devices, documents and workflow. Lots more. “Currently, the MFP-embedded app market is diversifying by taking on more specialized tasks” notes BPO Media senior analyst, Patricia Ames in this article.

Next-gen device vendors have introduced apps to MFPs in ways that reflect how we like to work for convenience, and how we need to work to be successful. Now apps can be embedded in or downloaded to devices for purposes as diverse as:

Last week we looked at the new Xerox® VersaLink® C400 and B400 Printers.  This week let’s look at the Xerox® VersaLink® C405 and B405 Multifunction Printers.  So what is the difference? Well the Xerox VersaLink C405 and B405 are multifunction printers that include not only printing but copying, faxing, scanning and emailing. The multifunction printers include all the features we discussed in last week’s article and more.
