Administrators can use the Alert Rules Manager to create alert rules. Alert rules are configured by selecting an event and then configuring the alert option that will be performed when that event occurs. This is particularly useful for monitoring printer states. Using alert rules, support personnel can be automatically notified when printers have conditions that could prevent end user printing.
