What are account log files
Account log files store details of all printed jobs. The printer generates account log files that can
be downloaded for job cost calculation. Every record in the file represents a single job. The record
consists of job properties and usage of inks and media.
The system administrator can define how account log file are created.
Account log files have the .CSV (comma delimited) file format. The .CSV format is supported by a
large amount of business applications and is useful for transferring tabular data between
programs. Account log files can be generated per day, per week, or per month. Completed
account log files have the .CSV extension in the name. The current account log file - the file that
can still be filled with new jobs - has the .ACL extension in the name.
Use the table below to understand how the name of the account log file is composed.
