This task is dual-purpose:It can be used either as an Action task, or as an Output task. In either
case, it does not directly produce an output, though the process it calls may produce one or
more outputs.
In either case, the called process will ignore the input task along with its job infos and schedule,
and use the job file, job infos, metadata and variables from the current process.

SNMP Condition
SNMPis a communication protocol for helping network administrators manage devices and
peripherals on their network. It is useful for verifying the status of network printers, as you can
retrieve error and other status messages that printers send out, such as being out of paper or
having low toner.
PlanetPress Workflow uses the SNMPprotocol in the form of an SNMPCondition, in to
ways:
l To check the status of printers on your network against values you set in a condition, and
to return a true or false value. This is called setting a Printer condition in the
SNMPcondition's Properties dialog box.
