Hi There<br />
<br />
We are doing some work in a school at the moment and there is an issue with the amount of paper and toner that is being consumed. The students (and teachers) need to print. But there are some who would print off 100 pages without even battering an eyelid.<br />
<br />
Is there some way of monitoring who is actually doing the printing and the quantity of pages that they are printing? Maybe put some sort of password operated system in place that would log all printing. This way they would see that they are being monitored. <br />
<br />
There are about 6 printers in different rooms that the students have use of. They are mostly HP LaserJet P2055 printers. The server is Server2003 and the desktops run W7.<br />
<br />
Any help or ideas?<br />
<br />
Doey

Keep record of who is printing and the amount they print

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).

Windows Server 2003

A server is a computer program or a machine that waits for requests from other machines or software (clients) and responds to them. This architecture is called the client–server model. The clients may run on the same computer or may connect to the server over a network. The purpose of a server is to share data or hardware and software resources among clients. Typical computing servers are database servers, file servers, mail servers, print servers, web servers, game servers, and application servers.
