Message-ID: <6305@wolfen.cc.uow.oz> Date: 29 Jun 90 01:49:10 GMT Organization: Uni of Wollongong, NSW, Australia Lines: 17 G'Day, can anyone help me with printer accounting using pac(8). Basically I know whats needed in /etc/printcap ( if= and af= ) but cant seem to find information anywhere on what an accounting filter should do. Is there any special format for the data to be stored in the particular printer account file, how should the filter update the file. Is there any other way to turn on printer accounting or do this type of printer accounting ?
