Monitor Local printer usage over a network

[DLW13]

Hi,

 

Does anyone know of any software that monitors the usuage (Pages printed) of locally attached printers (USB, Parallel) over all the computers over a network?

 

Thanks

You could stick

 

PaperCut Print Logger - a free print log monitor for Windows - PaperCut

 

on each client with a printer and maybe configure it to upload logs to server - worst case you'd have to go around and run it now and again to get info.

 

regards

Thanks for the replies!

 

I have used HP Jetadmin with the Local printer discovery plug-in, so I have a list of IP address' and host names that have locally attached printers. How can I get the print usage information?
