Networking Setup Guide 25Printer ManagementPrinter ManagementJob AccountingThe printer stores information about jobs printed in a log file. The log file is stored eitherin the printer’s memory or on a hard disk, if one is connected to the printer. If the log file isstored in the printer’s memory, it is lost when the printer is reset; therefore, it isrecommended that a hard disk be used for job accounting.The log file is a list of job accounting records. Each record contains fields such as username, job name, pages printed, job times, and ink used. Not all fields are supported by allprinters. For details, refer to the CentreWare DP or CentreWare IS online help.The job accounting values reported vary depending on the protocol and print commandused when each job was printed. For example, using NPRINT over NetWare provides theprinter with the most information about the job being printed. When using Windows andNetWare, the job name is often LST: or LST:BANNER. Other jobs from other ports mayprovide even less information about the job.Job accounting is available through CentreWare DP and CentreWare IS. See page 25.Using CentreWare IS1.
