Personalization is the process of customizing and configuring the device information and settings for
a specific user. When a user logs in to the device and personalized information is required, the device
searches for the required configuration information from an LDAP directory. Examples of personalized
information are the Home destination and an email address. For information about configuring
personalized information settings, refer to the System Administrator Guide at
ALC81XXdocs.
To personalize the local user interface experience, logged-in users can change the appearance and
layout of their home screen, set job programming defaults, and create personalized, one-touch
applications. For details, see Personalize.
Note: To allow the logged-in user to personalize their local user interface experience, the
System Administrator is required to configure the device personalization policy. For information
on configuring the device policy to enable user personalization, refer to the System
Administrator Guide at www.xerox.com/office/ALC81XXdocs.

Accounting is used to track and record the numbers of Copy, Print, Scanning, Server Fax, and Fax jobs
that the device produces for each user. The system administrator is required to create user accounts
and enable the accounting feature. After Accounting is enabled, provide Accounting IDs at the printer
to access restricted apps. If Authentication is enabled, you are required to log in first. Before you print
documents from a computer, provide your account details in the print driver.
The system administrator can set limits to restrict the total number of jobs by type that a user can
send to the printer. The administrator can generate reports that list usage data for individual users
and groups.
For details, refer to the System Administrator Guide at www.xerox.com/office/ALC81XXdocs.
