Obtaining Documents, Drivers, And Utilities From The Web; Obtaining Code Updates From The Web - IBM InfoPrint 20 User Manual

v Network Printer Manager (NPM)—NPM is a tool for network
administrators. It runs on the Web, Windows 95, Windows NT, and OS/2.
NPM:
– Enables you to install and configure InfoPrint 20 in Local Area Networks
(LANs), including TCP/IP and Novell 3.12 and 4.X.
– Monitors and provides network printer status information including
online/offline status, paper jams, out of toner conditions, and empty tray
conditions.
NPM uses industry standard, open systems Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP). SNMP supports Management
Information Base (MIB) which is a collection of information that
describes the printer's functions and features.
v Network Printer Resource Utility (NPRU)—NPRU enables administrators to
download fonts and overlays (PCL macros and PostScript overlays) to the
printer memory (DRAM, flash memory, or hard drive). NPRU runs on
Windows 3.1, Windows 95, and OS/2.
v IBM TCP/IP Network Port Monitor for Windows NT 4.0—This enables
users to receive up-to-date bidirectional printer and job status (including
end-of-job notification) from their network printers. The port monitor is
fully integrated into the Windows NT 4.0 print subsystem, so the
bidirectional status is displayed through the standard Windows NT printer
queue view. Clients on other Windows platforms can also see up-to-date
status if their printers are defined on Windows NT 4.0 and shared to the
network.
