The PrinterErrorTest indicates whether a particular measure generates a Critical warning or a Non-critical warning. A Critical warning is indicative of a problem so severe, that the printer is rendered unavailable until the warning is attended to. A Non-critical warning is one wherein the printer will continue to remain available despite the warning.
