9. Operating the Log
This section explains settings for acquiring the log, and operations such as displaying or
deleting the log.
What is the Log?
In Print Job Accouting, various information about print jobs such as who, when, and which
printer was used for print jobs is stored on the printer built-in hard disk or flash memory. This
information is called the log. The server software acquires the log from the printer according
to a set schedule.
By logging this information, it is possible to check how much individuals are printing, and how
much a specific printer is being used.
Note!
• A log entry is made when one or more sheets are printed. Furthermore, log entries are
made when printing is rejected, or when a job is cancelled because color printing is rejected.
• However, log entries are not made when the printer power is turned OFF during processing
or printing, or if printing cannot be performed because the printer has an error.
