Hi there,

Thank you very much for your contact.

There is no particular sensor that shows the total scanned pages count but this doesn't mean that you won't be able monitor this information with PRTG. As long as the device supports a protocol that PRTG supports (SNMP for example) and as long as the device is technically able to provide this information via SNMP, there is a high chance of getting that number in PRTG.

If the device supports a protocol as SNMP review the following KB article for instructions and links to the required tool to add your MIB's SNMP Library Sensors within PRTG:.
Custom Monitoring of Devices via SNMP

What device do you want to monitor in particular?

Best regards,
Sebastian

Hi there,

Thank you very much for your reply.

Because all of them are quite large MFCs, I tend to believe that they support SNMP. In this case, please proceed as described above.

Best regards,
Sebastian
