Printers Tab

Overview

A TCP/IP connection is needed for the AccXES Account Management Tool's
(AMT) host computer to have bi-directional communication with the defined
printers from which accounting data will be collected. The Printers Tab displays a
Printers List of the currently defined printers. Column boxes will be checked to
flag your attention to the fact that changes need to be transmitted to the printer
that were already made to the AMT Master Database.
You can add, delete, edit, or find a printer. When a printer is deleted from the
Raw Accounting Job Accounting Database, the database references to that
printer are removed. Deleting the printer does not affect job accounting
operations on the indicated printer.
Associating defined printers with specific accounts and users is done on the Edit
Account Associations Tab.
The maximum number of printers supported by the AccXES AMT is 999. For
system performance reasons it is recommended that the AMT Administrator limit
the number of printers to 100.
