Overview

JOB ACCOUNTING is a SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION menu option. Access to it is restricted to the system administrator and requires the entry of the system administration password.

The JOB ACCOUNTING option allows Scanner and Printer usage to be recorded in user defined account numbers. Usage is expressed as the area (not the length) of the media scanned or used.

Job Accounting for the Scanner is controlled through the Scanner Control Panel. For the WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM 8825, 8830, 8850, 510 Series, and 721P, Job Accounting for the Printer can be set from either the Printer Control Panel or the Web-based Printer Management Tool (PMT). For the WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM 721P and X2 TECH, Job Accounting for the Printer can be set from the Web PMT only.

The Web PMT consists of special Web pages located in the Controller. They are accessible through either the Microsoft Internet Explorer or the Netscape browsers. Version 4.0 or higher is required for proper results. Other Web browsers are not supported and may or may not work correctly.

Job Accounting can be set on the Scanner or Printer to one of three modes. The modes are:

∙ENABLED all jobs require a valid account number,

∙OPTIONAL a valid account number is optional for any job
