AIX Version 4.3 System Management Guide: Operating System and Devices
Showing Printer Usage
You can display printer or plotter usage accounting records with the pac command.
Prerequisites
- To collect printer usage information, you
must have an accounting system set up and running. See
"Setting Up an Accounting System"
for guidelines.
- The printer or plotter for which you want
accounting records must have an acctfile=
clause in the printer's
stanza of the /etc/qconfig file. The file specified in the
acctfile=
clause must grant read and write permissions to the
root user or printq group.
- If the -s flag of the pac
command is specified, the command rewrites the summary file name by appending
_sum to the path name specified by the acctfile=
clause in
the /etc/qconfig file. This file must exist and grant read and write
permissions to the root user or printq group.
Procedure
The pac command offers a number of
other flags for controlling what information gets displayed. See the
AIX Version 4.3 Commands Reference for details.
