The Alarms Configuration window allows PrinterMap customizing for handling 
detected printer alarms. PrinterMap can be configured to log the alarm. It can also 
launch a Pop-up window notification, or launch an executable. More than one 
action can be configured for a single alarm.  

PrinterMap only takes the configured action(s) if it detects a change in printer 
conditions. For example, if a printer is low on paper for consecutive status polls 
PrinterMap only logs the first low paper detection. There are two exceptions to 
this rule. One is when the PrinterMap graphical user interface (topology) is 
restarted. The other is when the Status Service  is restarted. In both cases all 
detected alarm conditions takes the configured action(s). This ensures that 
important printer events are not missed. 

The Alarm Configuration window’s Alarm column lists each alarm condition 
detected by PrinterMap. Select one to three automation actions on an individual 
alarm basis by checking the desired action next to the alarm condition. Automated 
action indication is applied to all alarm conditions by selecting the desired action 
next to the All item (last entry in the Alarm column). 

PrinterMap detects the following printer alarm conditions:
