1. Log in to the Axis Network Print Server using FTP.

2. Download the MIB file 

/snmp/axis.mib to the NMS host.

3. Install the AXIS MIB according to instructions in your NMS software 

documentation.

The AXIS MIB contains a large number of objects which may be 

categorized as follows:

•

Menu objects - used for viewing and changing the Axis Network Print 
Server configuration from the NMS program. Refer to 

•

Printer status and unit administration objects - used for monitoring 
Axis Network Print Server print jobs and storing parameter changes 
permanently.

•

Trap objects - used for alarms at various error conditions.

For technical details, you can view the MIB file (axis.mib) with any text 

editor.

When using the TCP/IP protocol (and if the printer driver permits), the 

print server can use SNMP Status to find out if the printer is ready to 

accept a new job. See “SNMP Device Index” on page 158.

After installing the Axis Network Print Server into the NetWare 

environment, you can manage your Axis Network Print Server, using 

either PCONSOLE, Novell’s NetWare Administrator, or iPrint.

Some useful features provided by the NetWare Administrator are 

described in more detail below:

Printer Status

The Printer Status menu, detailed below, shows the status of an active 

print job serviced by an Axis Network Print Server network print server. It 

displays detailed information concerning the active job including, Print 

Queue, print job description, size of print file, percentage of job 

completed, etc. You can also abort or pause the print job from this menu.
