It is possible to retrieve page count information via network if CU/FW and PU/FW cannot retrieve logs, **Internet Explorer 5.5 or later version is required. *** Network card or Optional flash must be installed. **** The model without a network card does not operate. ====================================== 2. How to use ====================================== 2.1 How to start the utility ------------------------------------ (1) Execute [Print Control] in [Start]-[Program]-[Okidata]-[Print Control]. 2.2 How to retrieve logs ------------------------------------ (1) Execute Add a Printer in Printer menu. Following the procedure, add a printer from which you want to retrieve logs. (2) Job Account ID registration dialog appears. If necessary, add a Job Account ID. (3) A dialog appears and asks if you want to start retrieving logs. Click "Yes." 2.3 How to end log retrieving ------------------------------------ (1) Execute Start/End Log in Printer menu. If you do not want to retrieve logs from a printer any longer, execute Delete a Printer/Printer Group in Printer menu and delete the printer. 2.4 How to uninstall the utility ------------------------------------ (1) Refer to "2.3. How to end log retrieving" and delete all the printers that have been registered. (2) Execute [Delete Print Control] in [Start]-[Program]-[Okidata]- [Print Control]. For details, refer to "Print Control User's Manual." ====================================== 3. Notes ====================================== (1) When you use a PS printer driver for printing, information of user name, Job Account ID or document name sometimes is not kept in log depending on your application. In such a case, the job is handled as a job of an unregistered user (Job Account ID = 0, User name = blank). (2) When you use a PS printer driver for Duplex print, a blank page on the backside is not counted as a page. (3) When you use Macintosh PS printer driver for printing, document name is not kept in the log. (4) When you use Macintosh PS printer driver for printing color data in gray scale, it may be counted as a color page. (5) Printing through PRINT SETTING in NETWORK MENU of printer's operator panel or printing through DIP switch in Ethernet board is not recorded as local print (Job Account ID= 1879048192) in the log. Such case is handled as a job of an unregistered user (Job Account ID = 0, User name = blank). (6) The drive to which you specified a folder for log storage at installation needs approx. 3MB hard disk space for 10,000 logs. (7) If in the Firewall setting on WindowsXP SP2, [Don't allow exceptions] is checked, printer discovery function does not work for the segments beyond the router. Printers connected within the same segment will not have this problem. Even when the printer cannot be discovered, if you select [Specify the printer by address] in Add printer wizard to get logs and select [TCP/IP Network] in [Address], and enter IP address directly, you can set it. (8) Logs cannot be acquired if you update to Windows XP SP2 when log acquisition has already begun, in the condition that the printer had been added to the Print Control under Windows XP SP1 or earlier. When this occurs, please restart the Windows. (9) SMTP Authentication function cannot be used on WindowsNT4.0. (10) B6500, B6250 and B930 printers record an additional page when a duplex print job has an odd number of pages. ======================== 4.
