Billing

The Xerox FreeFlow Print Server maintains a billing meter for a number of billable events for systems configured with billing capability. A meter is a measurement of how many billable events took place. A billable event is a transaction performed on the printer for which Xerox charges customers. System Administrators and Operators can view and print the billing report.

Specific customer information is retained upon system restarts.

Retained information includes:

Queue name for printing the Billing Report

Customer ID (Customer Name)

Machine ID (Printer Serial Number)

The Billing window displays the following information:

The date and time that the meters were read

Meter descriptions

Value information for the meters

Customers print out the billing report and send it to Xerox. Xerox then generates a bill based on the customer’s printer usage. This can be done automatically by using the Remote Services feature.

NOTE: Meter names and what they measure vary by region.

Refer to the Billing Meters section in this book.
