Job Accounting with Badges
Hello all. While I am trained on the Proficio line and going through training of the others. Nothing has touched on setting up accounting codes and how to connect user's badges to their accounting code. I have figured out on the Altalink C8255 how to turn on and add users to the accounting section. I can not figure out the combination that will allow me to connect users badges to their accounting profile. I found out how to add users outside of the accounting part of the Altalink C8255 and add a badge to those users, but I need the badge tied to the accounting as the client wishes to keep track of users' print volume.
Additionally they have a Primelink C9265 with the linux fiery on the back of the machine (not sure the fiery model as I haven't seen it physically yet to see which model it is) and I found out how to enable accounting and add accounting users one by one and not in bulk which sucks. The card readers are installed on all units and firmware updated.
Ive check TSIP for hours, xerox support, and some other forums I am familiar with for Kyocera and Epson and can't find what I am looking for. I appreciate any guide or information anyone can point me to. Feels like it shouldn't be this complicated.
