You are measuring the number of pages as a counter, not as a gauge. This means the resulting graph shows you the number of pages per timeunit (5 minutes poll time, I suppose). If you want to know the number of pages that the printer has printer, the data source should be defined as a counter.

i've already put my data source type in COUNTER, i've made a test with GAUGE but the result is printing : "k" ?

Can you give me your template ? I really need this template for my work.

Thanks

Set your GPRINT Type for your Page Counter to "Exact Number" instead of the default "Normal".

Hi

after moving from COUNTER to GAUGE, did you recreate the .rrd file ?

Try to delete it, it will be recreated by the Cacti poller next run.
