It is possible to remotely define and modify GET (Read Only), SET (Read/Write), and Trap SNMP (Simple 
Network Management Protocol) community names for the Printer. You can also enter the System 
Administrator's Name here for packet identification purposes. 
SNMP Community Name properties that can be configured are: 
Community Name (Read Only) — This is the password for SNMP GET requests from the SNMP Manager to 
the Agent in the Printer. Applications, such as Xerox Printer Map or CentreWare Conductor, obtaining 
information from the device by SNMP, use this password. 
Community Name (Read/Write) — This is the password for SNMP SET requests from the SNMP Manager to 
the Agent in the Printer. Applications, such as Xerox Printer Map or CentreWare Conductor, which set 
information on the device by SNMP, use this password.
Community Name (Trap Notification) — This is the default password for SNMP TRAPS sent from the device 
to the Manager by SNMP.
