Network Accounting
You can use Network Accounting to manage printer usage and to perform detailed cost analysis.
Network Accounting tracks print, scan, server fax, and copy jobs and stores them in a job log. All jobs
require users to authenticate with their User ID and Account ID. This information is logged with job
details in the job log. Users are prompted for accounting information when they submit jobs to the
printer.
You can compile job log information from the accounting server and produce formatted reports.
Before you begin:
• Install and configure Xerox
®
certified network accounting software on your network.
• To test communication between the accounting server and the printer, access CentreWare Internet
Services. At your computer, open a Web browser, in the address field, type the IP address of the
printer, then press Enter or Return.
• To track print and LAN Fax jobs, install print drivers on all user computers.
