Automated JSON API based communication with Samsung SyncThru Web Service
Project description
PySyncThru - a very basic python SyncThru bridge
A package that connects to a Samsung printer in the local network that makes use of the SyncThru web service and provides data that is provided via the JSON API of the device. It is able to read the system, toner and tray status and provides method wrappers to access them.
The package supports the following data provided by the printers:
- Device / System status
- Drum / Toner status
- Model name
- Tray status
Sadly it seems like there is no official API, so fixes are welcome and likely needed!
If your printer's language is not English, the functions might not work.
Usage
import aiohttp
import asyncio
from pysyncthru import SyncThru
IP_PRINTER = '192.168.0.25'
async def main():
async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
printer = SyncThru(IP_PRINTER, session)
await printer.update()
# Is printer online?
print("Printer online?:", printer.is_online())
# Show the printer status
print("Printer status:", printer.device_status())
if printer.is_online():
# Show details about the printer
print("Printer model:", printer.model())
# Get the details of a cartridge
print("Toner Cyan details:", printer.toner_status()['cyan'])
# Get the details about a tray
print("Tray 1 Capacity:", printer.input_tray_status()[1]['capa'])
# Print all available details from the printer
print("All data:\n", printer.raw())
loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
loop.run_until_complete(main())
