Printer Auditing

Auditing lets adminstrators see who printed how many pages to which printer on a given date. When enabled, auditing creates a log of print jobs submitted to the Print Manager for the selected printers. This information can be reviewed or downloaded to a spreadsheet.

To enable auditing on for this printer, select the Enable Auditing check box.

To view and download auditing information, click Auditing Management.

Thank you Gonzalo,

this is one interesting point and I enable them.
audit only concerns "released documents".

What I would like to do is tracing/logging incoming jobs, because we are testing printing through an home made application.

Thanks

Hi Pascal

Not sure what you mean with tracing and log them.
If audit is enable on the walkup printer and on the printers that the walkup contains, you can see what jobs are being sent to the walkup printer and then printed on the "normal" printers.

Attached a screenshot of my oes server with auditing enable on walkup and in normal printer. Then i send a print job to the walkup printer, then i release it to the normal printer.

Just the data on the walkup printer will be 0 as the real counter will be on the released printer.

You will see also a POST entry on the apache access_log file when job get submitted to the walkup printer

Also on the psmstatus , clicking on the walkup printer it ill show you the jobs data.

Nor sure what else are you looking for

Gonzalo

perfect "access_log" this is the one I need.

because audit only mentions released jobs

ok then
