Job Accounting
Job accounting is available through CentreWare IS. The printer stores information about print jobs. The
log file is stored either in the printer’s RAM memory or on the hard drive if one is installed in the printer.
Each job 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 about the fields supported, go to
the CentreWare IS 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.
