Hi List
Has anyone worked on a Print Audit and Monitoring system?
The current Print Monitoring System, I am working on, reads the eventlog from the Print server and extracts, Print events, and inserts the records in a formatted excel sheet. Thereafter, on a weekly basis, I run my accounting script, which does consolidation and ofcourse, reporting actions, if any.
Now, I am on a look with a different system, for two reasons:
1> What if I have a IP Printing system in my Enterprise, and want to Probably, use SNMP, to query HP Laserjet(JetDirect) to send status when print jobs are submitted.
2> If I am using a Win32 Print server, I cannot access non-win32 print jobs, like DOS prints, how to take care of them?
The idea I am playing on, is can I somehow tap the Win32-Spooler somehow, and control it to send status and also, block users, if I want to?
Well, thats just an idea, I am playing on it. Your suggestions are welcome!
Looking forward
Thanks
Yogi
