Estimated numbers of logs created per day
Log types Number of logs created per day
Job logs 100
Access logs 300
This number is based on 100 operations such as initialization and
access operations over the Web, and 200 job entries (2 entries per
job: 1 login and 1 logout).
Eco-friendly logs 100
According to these conditions, the machine can maintain logs for 40 days without overwriting. We
recommend downloading logs every 20 days in case errors may occur.
The machine administrator must manage downloaded log files appropriately.
• While logs are being downloaded, do not perform operations that will create log entries because
as the logs that are being downloaded cannot record new entries.
• Batch deletion of logs can be performed from the control panel or through Web Image Monitor.
Notes on Operation When the Number of Log Entries Reaches the Maximum
If the number of logs that can be stored on the machine exceeds the specified limit, old logs are
overwritten by new logs. The maximum number of logs that can be stored is defined for each of the job
log, access log and eco-friendly log.
The job log and access log are downloaded as one file.
"If logs are downloaded without overwriting" below indicates that the job log and access log are
combined after they are downloaded.
"If logs are downloaded during overwriting" below indicates that part of the access log is overwritten.
In this example, part of the access log is overwritten by a downloaded log and deleted.
The eco-friendly log is downloaded as an independent file.
Log entries are overwritten in the order of priority. Log entries with higher priority will not be overwritten
or deleted.
