Windows 7 / Getting Started

Configuring Print Server Notifications

In addition to setting notifications on a custom set of printers by using a printer filter, you can also set notifications for print servers. For example, if the print server is offline or the spooler goes down, an e-mail notification can be sent.

To configure print server notifications, right-click a print server in Print Management, select Set Notifications, and then follow the steps described previously to configure e-mail message parameters.
