For Print Logs, You Can • Export print logs as comma-separated value (.csv) files, which can be imported into many commercially available spreadsheet programs. • Automatically email print logs to the Administrator monthly on a selected day. • Customize items to be included in the log, setting them either manually (see page 50) or using one of the multiple Microsoft® Excel spread sheet macros provided (see page 54). • Acquire a print log for print jobs sent from a client directly to a printer, bypassing the print server. • Accurately record printed pages through print logs even when a client has cancelled his/her print jobs or paper jams have occurred. User Name Versus Account ID User Name The User Name is displayed whenever print logs are displayed, and its sole purpose is to make it easy to see who has been printing. The User Name is assigned when creating an Account ID (see page 37). It may be set up to represent an individual client or a group of clients, and is associated with the Account ID number. The User Name does not necessarily need to be the same as the Windows Login User Name. Account ID The Account ID is the number Print Job Accounting actually uses to identify clients. Account ID values of 1 through 1879048191 can be assigned. Clients who do not have their own Account ID will be recognized as Unregistered ID(0). Normally an Account ID is assigned to each individual client. If the same Account ID is assigned to different clients, all the print jobs they have made will be added up as the same client when the System totals up. Account IDs must be set for each individual registered printer connected to the Server. The same Account ID can be set up for more than one printer, with different limits set for each printer. Therefore, you can set particular clients to have access only to certain printers. - 13 - User Name Versus Account ID
