Sentry-go Quick Print Server Monitor
Despite the age of e-mails, texts and other instant messaging, the role of the printer is alive and well. Ensuring correct operation is however, time consuming and complex, especially in larger organisations. The Quick Print Server Monitor is designed for just such environments.
By automatically monitoring print queue lengths, the status of connected printers and the size of jobs queued for them, IT staff can be informed of issues immediately they occur, even before the end user picks up the phone. And by keeping an eye on the queue itself, large documents can be reported, paused or even cancelled if sent to the wrong type of printer, if required.
Alerting and web-based reporting
come as standard, allowing you to see exactly what's going on direct from your web browser, whilst Sentry-go automates the entire monitoring process.
Key monitoring features
Windows services
Monitor the status of your print spooler and other services, 24 x 7. If they stop, automatically restart them to get things moving again.

Printers, queues & jobs

Print spool & server performance
Continually monitor the performance of Windows, the print spooler as well as the server itself to check not only for errors, but also excessive loading, access issues or resource limitations. Spot trends early to ensure you rise to the challenge of increased demand before the system is adversely affected.

Alerting & reporting
Alongside monitoring, the Quick Print Server Monitor also provides a number of other key features designed to keep you informed and help when issues are detected.
Automatic response & alert
If errors are detected, Sentry-go can either respond automatically - for example to restart a failed service or delete temporary files to recover disk space etc., or it can alert you. You can alert in many ways, including by e-mail, SMS/text message & network message.
