Operator Control

QMS 4060 Print System Reference4-32

» Note:

When accounting is enabled and the Job Accounting files are

100% full, no further print jobs are accepted by the printer until

Resetaccounting is selected or until Accounting is disabled. If you

disable Accounting at this time, no job information is stored. You can

retrieve your accounting files while they are full and then do the

Resetaccounting operation. However, to avoid delaying jobs being

sent to the printer, it is advisable to perform the retrieve/reset

operations before the job accounting files fill up.

Segmenting the Accounting Job File

The Job File Segment menu allows you to decide whether accounting

information is stored in the printer in a single file or in multiple files.

Choices are Single and Multiple, with Multiple as the default. Although

it is convenient to store accounting data in a single file, the multiple

file option is useful if you must transfer your files to your host via

floppy disk.

If a single file is used, its size equals the Disk Space value described

earlier in this section. The file name will be ACC1.JOB.

If multiple files are selected, their combined size equals the File Size

value described earlier in this section. Each file will be 1 MB, except

the last file, which includes the remaining dedicated space. That is, if

you dedicate 10 MB to accounting and select multiple files, the printer

creates 10 files of 1 MB each. If you dedicate 5.5 MB to accounting,

the printer creates 5 files of 1 MB each and one of 500 KB. The Job

file names will be ACC1.JOB, ACC2.JOB, and so on.

Accounting Files

You can also access these accounting files with the Windows-

based QMS Crown Printer Auditor (CPA) utility on the QMS Software

Utilities CD-ROM. Refer to the CPA on-line help for more information.

printer’s hard disk, in the SYS:/ADMIN directory:

printer stores an entry for the job in this file. The job accounting
