The "testpappl" program provided with PAPPL can be used to test the SNMP stuff:

    git clone https://github.com/michaelrsweet/pappl.git
    cd pappl
    ./configure
    make
    testsuite/testpappl --get-id socket://IP-ADDRESS
    testsuite/testpappl --get-status socket://IP-ADDRESS
    testsuite/testpappl --get-supplies socket://IP-ADDRESS
