In NetWare Administrator, administrators can configure event notification for
users who want to be notified of a defined printer or server event that occurs
during the processing and printing of a job.
For example, the administrator for a specific printer (by default a Manager of
that printer) can designate an Operator to be notified if the printer runs out of
paper or if the toner is low.
In NetWare Administrator, administrators can configure two types of event
notification:
Job-owner notification. You can configure event notification for job
owners only through the printer's Configuration dialog box. When
notification is part of a configuration, the owner of a job submitted to a
printer with that configuration will receive the notification specified. For
more information, see
At the workstation, individual users can use the Novell Printer Manager
to configure event notification pertaining to their own jobs.
Interested-party notification. You can use the Access Control
Notification feature to configure notification to be sent to a printer's
Managers, Operators, or other interested parties about specified events,
normally those that require intervention of some kind.
Because this feature is tied to the Printer Access Control feature, it allows
you to restrict the list of individuals who will be receiving this notification
as much as you want. For more information, see
