Hi there, We would like here (1200 users) to run a statistical tool in order to know the following things : - How many sheets a user print in a month. - Which group is the biggest "paper-eater". - Which printer is the most used. - Stop a user to print when his "quota" is exceeded. - In a word we want to run a real "print-accounting". - etc,etc ... So before doing everything ( How lazy im I ! ) I would like to know : - If somebody has attempted to do something like this. - If it has a chance to work one of this days. - If there is some "secretes" routines to manage that kind of job in the prflib or in the OS. We use ONLY PostScrit printers ( TI 2115 ) and we are running 10.1,10.2/BSD4.3. We use the apollo "prf" command and DON'T want to user lpd for several reasons. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------| bonnetf@apo.esiee.fr | | Frank Bonnet | Surfing ... | E.S.I.E.E | | BP99 93162 Noisy le Grand cedex.FRANCE. | the rest is details ! | Fax : 33 1 45 92 66 99 | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
