Print Management - notify when printer is offline

Hello,

We have a print server and I noticed an offline printer.   It’s not in error, just offline so the Stuck Print Jobs will not alert.   Any ideas on how to alert with just an offline printer?

Thanks

  • If this is a Windows device the Win32_Printer WMI class I think will tell you this.  You would just need to create a new Datasource using WMI as the Collector method.

  • Is your print server a cluster? If not what are you using to pull those metrics?
