XEROX DOCUPRINT 180 LPS OPERATOR GUIDE A-1
A. AMeter reading and reporting
As jobs are printed by the LPS, usage information is accumulated
and saved. Instead of using physical meters, software in the printer
maintains the page count in its memory. Each month, that
information needs to be reviewed and transmitted to Xerox for billing
purposes. This appendix describes the procedures necessary to
extract the information and report it to Xerox.
Meter reading and billing report
There are two meters maintained by the laser printing system for
customer billing as follows:
• Meter A counts all good impressions delivered to their intended
output tray. This meter cannot be reset.
• Meter J counts only sheets printed in the printer diagnostic
mode and delivered to their intended output tray. Like meter A,
it cannot be reset.
Sometime during the last five working days of the month,
when the
system is idle
, you must extract the billing information and report it to
Xerox. To obtain a billing report, enter the REPORT BILLING
command at the system controller keyboard or use the Billing window
of the PC UI.
