Automatically discover the printers in your network and add them for monitoring. You can also view the network structure using topology maps.
With simple customization, you can monitor the performance of any printer(with SNMP support) from any vendor.
Stay up-to-date and respond to alerts quickly with timely notifications. Get email, SMS, voice calls, instant messenger, RSS, and push notifications about downtime.
The toner level for colors like black, yellow, magenta, and cyan.
The toner level for colors like black, yellow, magenta, and cyan.
Displays if there's a problem with the printer (For example, Low/ no supply of paper/ toner, paper is jammed, etc.).
Displays the current status of the printer (For example, Idle, printing, warming up, unknown, etc.).
The total number of pages printed.
The number of pages printed per minute.
The device's memory utilization.

Implementing a printer monitoring solution allows a business to optimize operational efficiency by gaining valuable insights into its printing infrastructure.
Identify whether there is excessive printing, implement print quotas, and educate employees on responsible printing practices. By doing so, organizations can reduce paper and ink wastage, lower printing costs, and ultimately improve their bottom line.
Receive instant alerts and notifications about printer errors, low ink or toner levels, and other issues in real time. This helps organizations quickly address these problems, reduce downtime, and ensure that operations continue to run without interruption.
Use print data analysis to identify printers that require regular maintenance or replacement. This helps organizations schedule maintenance activities in advance, which prevents unexpected breakdowns and ensures that printers function optimally.
Keep track of and manage multiple printers from a single dashboard. This system allows network administrators to monitor each printer's status remotely, configure print settings, update firmware, and troubleshoot issues without the need to visit each printer physically.
Printers can be a vulnerable entry point for cyber-attacks. These seemingly harmless office machines can pose significant threats to data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. By monitoring printers effectively, organizations can mitigate potential risks and enhance data security.
Printers can be vulnerable to data breaches due to their temporary storage of confidential information. This can lead to unauthorized access or sensitive data theft. By monitoring printer activities, suspicious or unauthorized access attempts can be detected and stopped quickly.
Tracking and controlling printing activities can help identify any abnormal or excessive printing, which may indicate potential security breaches or data leaks. For instance, an employee printing several documents outside of their regular working hours could be a sign of data theft or unauthorized disclosure. Printer monitoring allows organizations to investigate such incidents and take appropriate actions to mitigate risks.
Organizations can implement security protocols, such as requiring user authentication before printing, encrypting print jobs, or restricting printing to authorized personnel only. Printer monitoring enables organizations to monitor and enforce these policies effectively, ensuring that sensitive information is securely handled and in compliance with relevant regulations.
