Abstract
A system for print job accounting in a computer system is disclosed. The system includes a computing device and a printer in electronic communication with the computing device. Executable instructions are disposed in an electronic communication path between the printer and the computing device and are configured to add to a print job a new address as a destination for a status message. A pre-print analysis of the print job is performed. The instructions determine if the print job should be sent to a printer based on the pre-print analysis. The print job is sent to the printer. The status message is received that includes actual performance information relating to the print job. The actual performance information is communicated to an accounting system. In addition, the status message is sent to a monitor program.
