Abstract: This invention relates to an apparatus for monitoring a locally attached printer using the locally attached printer's Ethernet interface. A USB device is installed between a computer and a locally attached non-networked printer and additionally connects to the printer via an Ethernet interface. The USB device uses SNMP (or other network protocols) to manage the printer via the Ethernet interface. The system may then report the management information to a central server.

Abstract: Provided is a device for monitoring printer-related data on USB cables. The USB-compatible device comprises a first USB connector, a second USB connector, a processor, and a non-volatile memory. The device stores printer-related data, reports stored printer-related data to a server, and removes the stored printer-related data from the non-volatile memory.

Abstract: Provided is a computer-implemented system and method for monitoring printer-related data on USB cables. A USB-compatible device comprising a field programmable gate array and a microprocessor is placed in-line between a non-networked computer and a printer and monitors the line for print-related data. Once detected, the print-related data is transmitted via a radio frequency to a base station. The base station subsequently compiles the print-related data and relays the data to a printer reporting system.

Abstract: Provided is a computer-implemented system and method for monitoring network content data on USB cables. A USB-compatible device comprising a field programmable gate array and a microprocessor is placed in-line between a non-networked computer and a peripheral device and monitors the line for network content data meeting a set of predetermined criteria. Once detected, the network content data is transmitted via a radio frequency to a base station. The base station subsequently compiles the network content data and relays the data to a reporting system.

Abstract: Provided is a system for pairing or associating hardware in a printer-related data reporting system. The system utilizes custom application-specific software installed on a mobile or wireless device to enable a technician to easily and quickly assign the components of a printer-related data reporting system via tags placed on the individual components of the reporting system and uploading the data to a central server.
