DisablingSNMPintheTCP/IPPorts
IfaprinterwasinstalledwhenSNMPwasenabled,itcanbedisabledintheHPStandardTCP/IPPortand
theStandardTCP/IPPort:

NotethatthoughyoumaybeabletoprintifSNMPisdisabledattheprinterbutenabledintheport,you
mayexperienceprintdelays
astheportfirstattemptstogatherSNMPinformation.DisablingSNMPin
theporteliminatesthisdelay.
Tuningtheenvironment
SNMPandWebJetAdmin
WebJetadminmaintainsanaccuratedashboardofprinterstatusthroughregularSNMPandWeb
Services(WebServicesPrint,orWS‐Print)queries: 
 Discoverytoidentifynewprintersjoiningthenetwork
 Real‐timemonitoringwhenaWJAuserismonitoringaprinter
 Backgroundpollingtomaintainstatusanddetectfailures

 Dailydatacollectionstomaintainhistorical records
Alloftheseactivitieswillwakethepri nterfromAuto‐Off(totheSleepstate)butcanbemanagedto
provideareasonablecompromisebetweenenergysavingsandmanageability.Thefollowingare
recommendedpractices:
1) EnableSNMPontheprinteranduse
ashort(<5min)sleeptimer.
2) TerminateReal‐timemoni toring(i.e.userloggedin toWJAandwatchingprinter)when done.
3) Scheduledatacollectionforbusinesshours.
