When Job Accounting Mode is enabled the system examines the incoming job for a valid account number. If none is found, the job is rejected, and an error page is printed.
NOTE: The 8825/8830 print drivers and AccXES Client Tools (ACTS) software all have a feature that allows insertion of a job accounting number. Refer to the user guides for these software products for details.
If Job Accounting is optionally enabled, remote print jobs will be printed whether or not they have a valid account number. If a valid account number is present, the job will be charged to the user account and also accumulated to a system Generic User Id and Account Code. If no account number is present, the job is charged to a system Generic User Id and Account Code, just the same as if Job Accounting were disabled.
Once a valid job account number has been entered from the Scanner Control Panel, all use of the WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM Scanner is charged to that account. All usage continues to accumulate to that account until one of the following occurs:
∙You press the Exit key while either the READY screen or a fault screen is displayed.
∙The FEATURE timer times out due to no activity. The default value is 5 minutes, but this value can be changed. Refer to "TIMERS" in the "Main Menu" section for information about changing the value.
When an account is no longer in use, the PLEASE ENTER ACCOUNT screen is displayed.
NOTE: To avoid incorrect accounting, always ensure that the PLEASE ENTER USER screen is displayed before leaving the WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM for the next operator. Press the Exit key to obtain this screen.
