3.23 Using with Account Manager
If Account Manager is installed separately, it can be used together with
Authentication Manager. When Authentication Manager is used together
with Account Manager, the number of printed pages is compared with the
maximum limit in real time, and further output can be restricted when the
maximum limit is reached. (Real-time Upper Limit Settings)

Reminder
Account Manager is an application that calculates totals based on
various detailed elements, such as by user, function or paper size, and
analyzes the printing trends.
For details on the installation and functions of Account Manager, refer to
the "Account Manager User's Guide".
Upper warning and mail notification when the upper limit is reached are
executed when Account Manager collects the counter. For details, refer
to the "Account Manager User's Guide".
Precautions for use with Account Manager
If Authentication Manager settings are specified on a device managed with
Account Manager, the following operations are available.
- Turn the device off, then on again after the settings are specified.
Before changing the maximum limit settings or clearing the counter values,
check the following.
- The user whose settings are to be changed is not logged on.
- There are no print jobs remaining in the device.
If the user whose settings are being changed is logged on or if a print job
remains in the device, the settings may not be applied correctly.
To restart the job of the user whose upper limit was reached, increase the
upper limit value.
If the maximum limits of a user are different from the maximum limits of the
group that the user belongs to, the maximum limits of the group may not be
applied. We recommend specifying the same maximum limit settings for
users and groups for the following.
- "Enable (Total Counter)"
- "Enable (Color Counter)", "Enable (Black Counter)", "Enable (Color/Black
Counter)"
When specifying Authentication Manager settings, the counter value within
up to 10 minutes before specifying the settings may not be reflected to
Account Manager. Do not execute any job for 10 minutes before specifying
Authentication Manager.
