Status in CUPS for networked printer
Asked by
Philipp Schlesinger
For a multifunction printer (HP Photosmart C6280) connected via network, I get no status update in CUPS when the printer is disconnected from the network or simply shut down. CUPS constantly reports the printer to be idle and enabled.
I would very much like it to be able to see whether the device is reachable or not. Even in SANE I would be great to get sensible output if the device is offline.
So my question is: Is this a planned feature? Is there a way to improve the situation.
Best regards,
Philipp
