What is New in Dell Printer Management Pack
Version 4.0?
Dell Printer MP version 4.0 provides performance improvements over the
previous releases by providing a stand-alone management pack for managing
Dell printers. The previous releases (Dell MP version 3.1.1 and earlier)
provided only one management pack for managing Dell servers and printers.
Now, you can import only the Printer MP for managing Dell printers and
provide granularity.
The Dell Printer MP supports both
Simple Network Management Protocol
(
SNMP) version1 and SNMP version2 printers.
