A peripheral device may implement alternative reporting of errors and other events detected at the peripheral device. A peripheral device may monitor the operations of the peripheral device for reporting events. Upon detecting a reporting event, a notification of the reporting event may be generated and sent to a remote data store. The remote data store may store the reporting event and evaluate the reporting event for a responsive action that may be performed. If a responsive action is determined, then the remote data store may direct the performance of the responsive action. The remote data store may provide access to stored reporting events for a peripheral device.
