In my (seemingly) never-ending battle with Xerox over my Phaser 5400 printer,
I've found I can get accurate printer status (at least regarding whether the
job has finished printing or not) via SNMP.
Question: has anyone out there hacked ifhp (yet) to
a. send status query via SNMP rather than using PJL status commands
b. exec an external command to do the dirtywork and wait for it to
return a status to deal with the job in question
If I can do either of those, this printer just might actually work. :)
