Discovering Printers by Importing IP Addresses From a CSV File
Discovering printers by importing IP address from a CSV file option allows you to discover printers
listed in a Comma-Separated Value (CSV) file. You can specify a list of IP addresses separated by a
comma in the CSV file. To create a CSV file, specify a list of IP addresses in different columns in
Microsoft Excel and save it as .csv file. The system will discover the printers by reading the CSV file.
Importing IP addresses from a CSV file-based discovery is the fastest way to discover multiple printers
distributed across multiple subnets, and whose IP addresses are already known to the administrator. It
is useful when a set of printers have just been commissioned.
To discover printers using CSV import, perform the following steps:
1
In the
SNMP
Community Name
field of the
Discovery
window, type a valid community name of the
printers to be discovered.
2
Select the
CSV Import
option.
