Network Accounting (also known as Job Based Accounting) allows you to manage printer
usage with detailed cost analysis capabilities. Print, Scan, and Copy jobs are tracked at
the printer and stored in a job log. All jobs require authentication of User ID and Account
ID, which are logged with the job details in the job log. The user is prompted for
accounting information when submitting a job to the printer.
The job log information can be compiled at the accounting server and formatted into
reports.
Note
If the device is configured to use CAC authentication, it will need to be disabled in order
to use Job Based Accounting. For details, see
Common access card (CAC) authentication .
