4.1 Introduction
The HID Printer Status Monitor displays information about your card printer print jobs. During the installation of the
printer driver, you were prompted with the recommended option to install the HID Printer Status Monitor.
After installation, the Status Monitor is set to launch on start up. It can be accessed through a short cut in your startup
folder or an icon in the notification area (which may be hidden). To make the HID Status Monitor icon be more visible on
your PC, you can pin it to your taskbar or use the Windows settings to always show the icon on the taskbar.
Features of the Status Monitor include enabling and customizing desktop notifications, saving or opening a system log
event, canceling a print job, and submitting a technical support case.
The Status Monitor can monitor all printers that are connected to your PC, either through a network connection
(Ethernet) or through a USB cable. The printers are shown in a folder structure also known as a device tree with groups
of printers at the top level and printer instances in subgroups. Each node and each instance can be configured and
monitored.
