Re: [Nagios-users] snmp monitoring of RICOH / DEVELOP
I tried once to get RICOH Savin Printers checked via Nagios. Searched high and low for something and never did find anything that was already developed. Figured I was going to have to write my own stuff. Now I'm trying the same thing with Toshiba printers, nothing there either. If someone has a way to utilize Check_hpjd for non HP printers, lets pool the knowledge on this subject.

Re: [Nagios-users] snmp monitoring of RICOH / DEVELOP
I'm actually writing a plugin for monitoring printers. Currently, I have only tested it with HP printers, but at least in theory it should work with Ricoh and others as well, since it uses standard SNMP. If you want to try it out, download http://sourceforge.net/projects/tntnagiosplugin/ I would actually appreciate feedback about what printers it does or does not work with. One catch: the plugin only runs on Windows, so it is not directly useful for the majority of nagios users (I wrote it primarily for my own needs). Also, the only thing it currently monitors is toner level. Doug Veldhuisen wrote: I tried once to get RICOH Savin Printers checked via Nagios.

Re: [Nagios-users] snmp monitoring of RICOH / DEVELOP
Well, I threw together a (very) quick shell script for this purpose that I am using here. Basically just checks the status SNMP entry of our ricohs, and returns a status code depending on that as well as whatever status text SNMP gives. It is NOT polished, and will probably break if you look at it wrong, but it works for us. If anyone wants it, let me know. --- Israel Brewster Computer Support Technician Frontier Flying Service Inc. 5245 Airport Industrial Rd Fairbanks, AK 99709 (907) 450-7250 x293 --- On Mar 5, 2009, at 6:28 AM, Kevin Keane wrote: I'm actually writing a plugin for monitoring printers.
