Get printer usage and accounting information
There are two types of information you can get related to printer usage:
●
Accumulated usage information: information about printer usage (paper and ink consumption) and
scanner usage (scan and copy) for the whole life of the printer.
●
Detailed job accounting information: information about the characteristics of specific scan and print
jobs, such as who created it, when it was sent, termination status (successful, cancelled…), and the
resources (ink and paper) used to process it.
This information can be accessed from the printer’s front panel or from the Embedded Web Server, and it can
be printed. There is also the capability of configuring the printer to send usage and accounting reports by
email.
The usage, status, and accounting information can also be used by a third party application through a
Software Development Kit provided by HP.
