12.8 Printer Accounting
When you use a printer that has accounting enabled, a record is written to
the printer accounting file. Printer accounting records have a specific
syntax and provide the following information:
• Name of the host and user that issued the print request
• Number of pages or feet of medium printed
• Number of times the printer was used
• Price per unit of printed output
The printer accounting records enable you to charge users for the system
printing resources and to track printer usage.
The two printer accounting files are located in either the /var/adm or the
/var/adm/printer directory. The
printer. acct printer user file lists
the amount and cost of print media used, according to machine and user
name. The
printer. acct_sum printer summary file lists a summary of
media produced according to machine and user name. The
printer
variable specifies the printer name. Refer to Chapter 10 for information on
creating the printer accounting files.
Use the pac command to create a report of your printer activity. The pac
command can obtain information only for printers that have accounting
enabled. The pac command has the following syntax:
pac
[-cmrs][-p price][-P printer][user...]
Refer to the pac(8) reference page for information on the command options.
