Xerox Standard Accounting
Overview
Xerox Standard Accounting (XSA) is a free feature of the WorkCentre 7655/7665/7675.
When enabled, XSA tracks the numbers of Copy, Print, Network Scanning, E-mail, Server Fax, Internet
Fax and Embedded Fax jobs (when these features are installed on the machine), for each user. Usage
limits can also be applied to users to restrict the total numbers of copy, print, fax and scan jobs that a user
can perform. Administrators can print a report which contains all XSA data.
XSA is set up through CentreWare Internet Services, the machine's HTTP pages displayed on your web
browser. Administrators must create accounts and specify limits before users are authorized to access the
machine.
When XSA is set up, users must enter their account details at the machine to use the device. When they
have finished their job, their XSA allocation is reduced by the number of prints, copies or scans performed.
When XSA is enabled, users must enter their account details in the printer driver to print documents from
their workstations.
The XSA feature is mutually exclusive from any other accounting feature. If XSA is enabled at the device,
you cannot enable Foreign Device Interface, Auditron or Network Accounting.
Each device supports a maximum of:
- 2500 unique XSA user IDs
- 500 General Accounts
- 500 Group Accounts.
All user IDs must be assigned to one or more group accounts.
NOTE: The XSA settings and account data are stored in the machine. It is strongly recommended that
you back-up the settings and data regularly using the Cloning procedure available through the Internet
Services screens. Should the machine lose your XSA data and settings you can restore them from the
backup file that you produced by the Cloning process.
