Xerox Usage Analysis Tool
The Xerox Usage Analysis Tool is a Windows client/server application that allows system
administrators to automatically track Xerox printer usage and obtain job accounting
records. The tool supports large networks, with many users and printers.
Job accounting and printer usage data is stored in a database. The application can be run
on multiple clients using a single server. The data can be exported to a spreadsheet for
viewing, analysis, and billing.
Complete information on using the Usage Analysis Tool is provided by the application’s
online Help system.
