Job Accounting – Setup and Administration
(continued)
Accounting can be used for:
•
scan-to-net jobs, jobs that are scanned and stored on the internal hard
disk for later retrieval over the network
•
copy jobs, jobs that are scanned and then printed
•
remote print jobs, jobs that are sent to the printer through one of the
communications ports on the controller, rather than from the scanner.
For details on the administration of Job Accounting for remote print jobs,
refer to the
Job Accounting Administrator Guide.
Under Job Accounting, each of these types of submission is accrued under
the appropriate system account as shown in the Account Definitions table
above, and also under the account number of the submitting operator.
Users are charged for the
area of media used, rather than the linear length
used. On the display, the usage is reported in
square feet if INCHES has
been set in the menu under CONFIGURATION/ LOCALIZATION/ DISPLAY
UNITS, and in
square metres if MILLIMETERS has been set. Internally, the
usage figures are always stored on the internal hard disk expressed in
square decimetres. Usage figures written to a floppy disk are also
expressed in square decimetres.
Separate usage figures are compiled for Bond, Vellum (Tracing Paper),
Film, and Scanned (scan-to-network) usage.
Plot nested jobs, that is, jobs that print multiple images arranged on a sheet
of media, are charged for the calculated area that the images themselves
consume. The surrounding white space area is charged to a special system
account.
Note: copy jobs cannot be plot nested.
