Compaq Printer monitoring

I am using Nagios 3.0.1 on RHEL 4 to monitor various Windows and linux / Unix flavors.  I have setup to monitor a network printer via SNMP and I get the following result on printer status (PING is ok):

Error in packet : Timeout from host 172.24.50.102

Below is the printer.cfg (without the PING definition since it works):

define host{
 use          generic-printer
 host_name    satyam_canon3380
 alias        Canon iRC3380
 address      172.24.50.102
 hostgroups   network-printers
}

define hostgroup{
 hostgroup_name  network-printers
 alias           Network Printers
}

define service{
 use                    generic-service
 host_name              satyam_canon3380
 service_description    Printer Status
 check_command          check_hpjd!-C public
 normal_check_interval  10
 retry_check_interval   1
}

I would appreciate any enlightenment from the group.

Thanks,
Izz
