NOTE: Reports generated for a long time period or for a large group ofprinters
with high granularity may require a significant amount of time to
generate. For example, generating a Standard Report (with the standard
report polling interval set to every hour) for an entire year on one or
more printers is time consuming. The resulting report contains an entry
for every hour of every day for an entire year.
PrinterMap retains reporting information for the present year and the past year on
a rolling two year basis. The reference point for this data preserving method is
st
January 1 not PrinterMap' s installation date. Refer to "Reporting Data Custodial
Procedures" in Chapter 5 for more details.
The four PrinterMap user-generated report types are described in detail in the
following sections:
Standard Single Printer Report
Standard Group Printer Report
Standard Reports are reports that use Standard Report Polling Interval
configuration values entered by the user in the Reporting Configuration window.
Standard reports only contain printer data entries for data collected on the
currently configured standard polling interval. If standard report polling is
configured to poll hourly then a standard report contains an entry for every hour
within the report generation time parameters defined by the user (provided the
reporting data printer file has data stored for each hour). If standard report polling
is configured to poll monthly, a standard report contains a single entry for each
month within the report generation time parameters defined by the user.
• Custom Single Printer Report
• Custom Group Printer Report
Custom Reports are reports that use the Custom Report Polling Interval
configuration values entered by the user in the Reporting Configuration window.
They allow entry of special values and parameters for one particular report or
reports period outside the standard report cycle. It is important to note that
Custom reports contain printer data entries for every hour available in the printer' s
reporting data file. If the custom report polling interval is configured to poll every
six hours but the standard report polling interval is configured to poll hourly, then
a custom report contains hourly data entries not data entries for every sixth hour.
When selecting Standard or Custom reports, specify reporting parameters on a
window similar to the one shown. Select a printer or group for generating a report
and the type of generated report. Respond to prompting by specifying the From
and To time period for the generated report.
