Print Server help

[ingenious7]

Hello.

I’m trying to configure my OS X print server a little more. All printers print through to an old blue and white G3 running 10.3 Server, but I want to set up print quotas, as the amount of paper being wasted at the moment is incredibly insane!

Does anyone know of some software, preferably web based, that I can use to show users what number of printouts the have made, and the number they have left?

Also, is it possible to find somewhere in the logs that tells me the amount of sheets printed out on any one day for a queue?

I hope somebody can help!

Cheers.

Thanks for the reply MacTroll. Really would prefer something free, so I’m looking into PyKota. Has anybody had any experience running this with the Mac OS X printing system? How well does it work.

I am really interested in showing the users what they have printed and how much they have left to print.

Cheers.
