Job Accounting – Setup and Administration
(continued)
The administration functions below can be done from the DDS User
Interface, mounted on top of the Scanner, from the Printer Control Panel on
the Printer itself, or from a World-Wide Web (HTML) browser application
connected over the network to the Printer's network IP address. The last
two methods are explained in detail in the separate Job Accounting
Administrator Guide. The section below explains how to administer Job
Accounting using the DDS User Interface.

Press the Menu key to gain access to the menu structure.
Press the Next key or the Previous key to scroll through the choices at any
level. Press the Enter key to confirm a selected choice.
