In this chapter, we have discussed how to monitor printers and print jobs using CUPS. You've seen how to use the lpstat
command, the access_log
file and the error_log
file to help you monitor printing on your network. We have also discussed how SNMP helps CUPS to search for printers. We have seen how the setup of email helps users, and then the administrator, in conveying some important messages. Finally, we also discussed how Cacti can be used to monitor our printer with the help of SNMP.
