community names to control management access to the print server.
Set Community Name is a password to send (or write) SNMP information on the HP Jetdirect
print server.
Get Community Name is a password to retrieve (or read) SNMP information on the HP Jetdirect
print server.
An incoming SNMP SetRequest or GetRequest command must contain the appropriate Set or

contents using the message digest algorithm 5 (MD5, RFC 1321).
