Ira and Mark,
The Finisher MIB was meant to not only apply to
printers but to stand alone finishers, etc.. As such, you
can not rely on the prtXXX entries for information (there
is some overlap though).
Also, a finisher could have supplies (staples) as well
as output bins. Therefore, finSupplyCurrentLevelMIB
is different from finDeviceCurrentCapacity where by one
refers to the # of supplies remaining to be used and one
refers to the level of a bin/tray/etc.
Just my 2 cents,
Ray Casterline
