Printer Management Printer Management Job accounting The printer stores information about jobs printed in a log file. The log file is stored either in the printer's memory or on a hard disk, if one is connected to the printer. If the log file is stored in the printer's memory, it is lost when the printer is reset; therefore, it is recommended that a hard disk be used for job accounting. The log file is a list of job accounting records. Each record contains fields such as user name, job name, pages printed, job times, and toner used. Not all fields are supported by all printers. For details, refer to the PhaserShare Administrator or PhaserLink Printer Management Software 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 even less information about the job. Job accounting is available through the PhaserShare Administrator and PhaserLink Printer Management Software.

Job accounting
The printer stores information about jobs printed in a log file.
The log file is stored either
in the printer’s memory or on a hard disk, if one is connected to the printer.
If the log file
is stored in the printer’s memory, it is lost when the printer is reset; therefore, it is
recommended that a hard disk be used for job accounting.
The log file is a list of job accounting records.
Each record contains fields such as user
name, job name, pages printed, job times, and toner used.
Not all fields are supported by
all printers.
For details, refer to the PhaserShare Administrator or PhaserLink Printer
Management Software 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 even less information about the job.
Job accounting is available through the PhaserShare Administrator and PhaserLink Printer
Management Software.
