Job Accounting

Job accounting is available through CentreWare IS and CentreWare Web.

The printer stores information about print jobs in a log file. The log file is stored on the hard drive.

The log file lists job records. Each record contains fields such as user name, job name, pages printed, job times, and toner or ink used. Not all fields are supported by all printers. For more information, go to the CentreWare IS Online Help or CentreWare Web Online Help.

The job accounting values reported vary depending on the protocol and print command used when each job was printed. For example, using NPRINT over NetWare provides the printer with the most information about the job being printed. When using Windows and NetWare, the job name is often LST: or LST:BANNER. Other jobs from other ports may provide less information about the job.

Using CentreWare IS

To access job accounting information using CentreWare IS:

1.Launch your web browser.

2.Enter the printer’s IP address in the browser’s Address field.

3.On the right side of the main CentreWare IS page, click Jobs.

The Job Accounting Links page provides links that enable you to browse, download, and clear job accounting records.
