Parameters Description
Time out If an error occurs during the sending of the print job, the
print job will automatically be sent again. You can limit the
duration of this process by defining a time out (1 - 120 min).
This will prevent the process from being repeated endlessly
and from blocking other connections.
SNMP monitoring Enables/disables the reception of printer status messages.
If parameter changes are controlled by a print server
password, you must enter the password for the SNMP
monitoring into the 'Community' box. If no password is
used, you must enter 'public'.
Authentication Enables/disables the option 'Authentication'.
Use proxy server You can print via a proxy server. Tick 'Use proxy server' and

server.
