Subject: Chatty printers

Hi. We have several HP 4240/4250 printers and they show up on the network sniffer as very chatty. is there a way to scale that back, make them less chatty on the network? I have IPX/SPX and Appletalk turned off.

thanks,
D

Dee,

You can also turn off DLC/LLC and change SNMP to Enable SNMPv1/v2 read-only access. The addition of those two settings should cut back on the chatter. They are both located on the same place as the IPX/SPX settings.

Thanks for the reply John. I did go in and change the settings and it did slow the printer chatter.

YOU ROCK!!!
