How to use this page

Choose a list box to filter the number of printers the page shows. You can either select an entry from the list box or select the search field and type in an entry. When you type in a string, the page only matches entries for events that have been collected previously.

You can choose or enter data from one of the following filters:

• Host: Shows only printers that have been defined on the selected host.
• Printers: Shows only printers whose name matches the text you entered or name you selected.
• Operation: Whether or not a baseline was written for the printer status.

You can sort the printer list by clicking on a column header. Clicking the header multiple times toggles an ascending or descending sort.
