Abstract

See full text

Embodiments described herein provide for adaptive polling of printers that service SNMP requests. One embodiment comprises a controller that identifies a group of pre-configured SNMP requests utilized for periodically polling a printer. The controller transmits a first SNMP request from the group to the printer in response to a start of the polling of the printer, and caches a SNMP response from the printer for the first SNMP request. The controller determines a response time of the printer for the first SNMP request, and determines if the response time exceeds a threshold. If the response time exceeds the threshold, then the controller halts transmission of remaining SNMP requests from the group to the printer. If the response time does not exceed the threshold, then the controller transmits the remaining SNMP requests to the printer, and caches SNMP responses from the printer for the remaining SNMP requests.
