ABSTRACT:
A system and method is provided for asynchronous reporting of printer maintenance data in a printer. The method can include the operation of setting a hardware trap for a printer power-on event in the printer. The hardware trap is configured to report to a harvesting server in response to generation of the hardware trap. A further operation is generating the printer power-on event using the hardware trap when the printer is powered-on. Another operation is collecting printer maintenance data in response to the printer power-on event. In addition, the printer maintenance data that has been collected is sent to the harvesting server in order to update the printer maintenance data stored by the harvesting server.
