Can you send your command definition? Can you make it work from the command line?

Additionally, if the printer does not even have SNMP capability, you will also get a timeout. You'll need to check the printer firmware config. Why have you titled this message "Compaq Printer Monitoring" and yet provided the config for a "Canon iRC3380"? Perhaps you are getting your printers mixed up?
