Copy Accounting Files to Host

Accounting files should be transferred to your host computer periodi-
cally to keep the printer from being overloaded with data and to allow
you easy analysis of data.

Using the QMS Crown Printer Auditor (CPA) Utility

You can access the accounting files with the Windows-based QMS
Crown Printer Auditor (CPA) utility on the

QMS Software Utilities CD-

ROM. Refer to the CPA on-line help for more information.

Using the File Transfer Protocol (FTP)

»

Note:

FTP works only when the printer is off line and the message

window displays

IDLE

. Use the ls command in the SYS:/admin

directory to see which accounting files you are going to retrieve. The
ls command is issued from a remote console. If multiple Job
Accounting files are used, each of the ACCx.JOB files should be
copied. (x is the number of each subsequent Job Accounting file.)

Use File Transfer Protocol (FTP) on the host, if a TCP/IP connection
is available to the printer, to copy the files from the printer’s hard disk
to the host as follows:

1

Type

ftp

printer-name

(where

printer-name

is either the

IP address of the printer or its corresponding host name).

2

If your printer has a DECnet-TCP/IP interface, follow these
steps. Otherwise go to step 3.

a

When prompted for a user id, enter

admin

as the user name

and give the appropriate password, if required.

b

At the ftp> prompt, type

bin

to use binary mode for the

download procedure.
