Consumable Monitoring with PrintNet Enterprise
The Integrated Print Management System works with PrintNet Enterprise (PNE). PNE allows a system
administrator to remotely view the current consumable status of all printers. PNE can be configured to
deliver alerts on all consumable warnings. When a ribbon reaches the low state, PNE notifies the system
administrator remotely via an automated e-mail alert of the low condition. This allows corrective action to
be taken before the ribbon reaches its end of life. If the ribbon is not changed, an alert will again be
initiated once the ribbon reaches the 0% end point. Refer to your PrintNet Enterprise Remote
Management Software manual for details.
Protocols and Emulations
A protocol is a set of rules governing the exchange of information between the printer and its host
computer. These rules consist of codes that manipulate and print data and allow for machine-to-machine
communication. A printer and its host computer must use the same protocol. As used in this manual,
protocol and emulation mean the same thing.
Most impact printers use single ASCII character codes to print text, numbers, and punctuation marks.
Some characters are defined as control codes. Control codes instruct the printer to perform specific
functions, such as underlining text, printing subscripts, setting page margins, etc. The difference between
most printer protocols is the characters used to create control codes and the ways in which these
characters are formatted.
When the printer executes the character and control codes of a particular printer protocol, it is emulating
that printer.
