NDPS managed objects represent the behavior, capabilities, characteristics, and status of print service providers (software and hardware) and their subsystems.
NDPS managed objects are based on open standards, which include the following:
The DPA standard focuses on print jobs and the related objects used to produce a job, while the Printer MIB describes the physical printer and its components. NDPS information objects are based on elements of both standards and additional objects that are unique to NDPS.
