User Name Versus Account ID

User Name
The User Name is displayed whenever print logs are displayed, and
its sole purpose is to make it easy to see who has been printing.
The User Name is assigned when creating an Account ID (see
page 669). It may be set up to represent an individual client or a
group of clients, and is associated with the Account ID number.
The User Name does not necessarily need to be the same as the
Windows Login User Name.
Account ID
The Account ID is the number Print Job Accounting actually uses to
identify clients. Account ID values of 1 through 1879048191 can be
assigned. Clients who do not have their own Account ID will be
recognized as Unregistered ID(0).
Normally an Account ID is assigned to each individual client. If the
same Account ID is assigned to different clients, all the print jobs
they have made will be added up as the same client when the
System totals up.
Account IDs must be set for each individual registered printer
connected to the Server. The same Account ID can be set up for
more than one printer, with different limits set for each printer.
Therefore, you can set particular clients to have access only to
certain printers.
