How would you report to management, the number of print jobs each printer produces?
The Accounting department in your organization has five printers. Management has requested of you to give them a report on the number of print jobs each printer
produces so they can decide which of the printers in use are necessary and which are not. How do you do this?
produces so they can decide which of the printers in use are necessary and which are not. How do you do this?
If you’ve got Active Directory, it will be easy for you.
1. If the printer got network card then you can just plug it in to the network and install the printer at your SERVER. If it’s not then Install the printer in each computer and share it after that, Install the printer at your SERVER (\\computer_name\printer_name)
2. Go to and download free print logger
Thats it papercut print logger will record who is printing to which printer, how many pages, at what time, what file name they print, etc etc etc.
How did I do?
I would need more details, however I know HP laser printers have counters that keep track of that. See if you can log in to the management interface on your printers.
