Meter reading and reporting
As jobs are printed by the LPS, usage information is accumulated
and saved. Instead of using physical meters, software in the
printer maintains the page count in its memory. Each month,
that information needs to be reviewed and transmitted to Xerox
for billing purposes. This appendix describes the procedures
necessary to extract the information and report it to Xerox.
Meter reading and billing report
There are two meters maintained by the laser printing system for
customer billing.
•
Meter A counts all good impressions delivered to their
intended output tray. This meter cannot be reset.
•
Meter J counts only sheets printed in the printer diagnostic
mode and delivered to their intended output tray. Like
meter A, it cannot be reset.
Sometime during the last five working days of the month, when
the system is idle, you must extract the billing information and
report it to Xerox. To obtain a billing report, enter the REPORT
BILLING command at the system controller keyboard or use the
Billing window of the PC UI.
