Printer Management Software ■ Discover printers on local and remote subnets. ■ Automatically discover printers as scheduled. ■ Generate reports. ■ Connect to printer web servers for additional printer-specific features, including help. For more information go to www.xerox.com/office to view the CentreWare Web User Guide. Using Printer Management Features Job Accounting The printer stores information about print jobs in a log file. The log file is stored either in the printer's memory or on an optional hard disk if one is installed in the printer. If the log file is stored in the printer's memory, it is lost when the printer is reset. It is recommended that a hard disk be used for job accounting. The log file lists job records. Each record contains fields such as user name, job name, pages printed, job times, and toner and ink used. Not all fields are supported by all printers. For information go to 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. Job accounting is available through CentreWare IS and CentreWare Web. Using CentreWare IS 1. Launch your web browser. 2. Enter your printer's IP address in the browser's Address field (http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx). 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. For complete information on CentreWare IS job accounting, including clearing job information, downloading job information to a file, and job accounting file formats, go to CentreWare IS Online Help. MaiLinX Alerts MaiLinX alerts allow the printer to automatically send email to the system administrator and others under the following conditions: ■ When printer errors, warnings, and alerts occur. ■ When the printer requires attention (for example, when service is required or supplies need to be replenished).
