PrintingScout Alerts

PrintingScout is a tool that is installed with your Xerox printer driver. It automatically checks
the printer status when you send a print job. If the printer is unable to print your job,
PrintingScout automatically displays an alert on your computer screen to let you know that the
printer needs attention. Click the alert to view instructions explaining how to fix the problem.
