My RHEL print server is sending SNMP queries to the printers. Why? Can I prevent this?
Issue
SNMP Queries are sent to printers when we print something by lpr like "lpr -P 10.64.255.38 text.txt". Is the sending of SNMP queries when printing a implementation of CUPS? Can we disable this function?
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5, 6, and 7
- Common Unix Printing System (CUPS)
