Hi All, Does anyone know of a Mac OS X application that will record the amount of prints sent to a particular printer? We have colour printers that we want to bill our customers to use.
Thanks.

In MacOS X Server you can set up print quotas for users. You could perhaps sell prints in advance, i.e. one could buy 50 prints and then you just set up a print quota for 50 prints. Of course you would have to buy MacOS X server.

I had the same problem but I couldn't find a better solution. Not without switching to some other OS...
 
In OSX Print Quotas on the Server or Workstation, is there any way to find out how much quota a user has left? So if you have 10 pages of 50 left for your quota - how do you find that out?

Also when your quota runs out, does it alert the user to the fact? Ours just stops printing and bins the job on the server, but never reports BOO! :confused:
