What is the difference between the Supplies alerts under the General category and the Supplies alerts under the Supplies category?
The supplies alerts under the General category and the supplies alerts under the Supplies category contain essentially the same types of events to indicate when supplies are running low or out: toner, maintenance kit, fuser, threshold hit, cleaning kit, etc. However, for the alerts under the General category, the device dictates when a supply has run low or out. For the alerts under the Supplies category, the user dictates when the supply is running low or out by entering a threshold. The Supplies category alerts will be triggered based upon polling of the maximum and current levels of the supplies and performing a percentage remaining calculation. The General category alerts are performed via traps or polling of status objects for supplies running low or out.
