| 335.Sh TRANSFER STATISTICS 336When a print job is transfered to a remote machine (which might be 337another unix box, or may be a network printer), it may be useful 338to keep statistics on each transfer. The 339.Cm sr 340and 341.Cm ss 342options indicate filenames that lpd should use to store such 343statistics. A statistics line is written for each datafile of a 344job as the file is successfully transferred. The format of the 345line is the same for both the sending and receiving side of a 346transfer. 347.Pp 348Statistics on datafiles being received would be used on a print 349server, if you are interested in network performance between a 350variety of machines which are sending jobs to that print server. 351The print server could collect statistics on the speed of each 352print job as it arrived on the server. 353.Pp 354Statistics on datafiles being sent might be used as a minimal 355accounting record, when you want to know who sent which jobs to a 356remote printer, when they were sent, and how large (in bytes) the 357files were. This will not give include any idea of how many pages 358were printed, because there is no standard way to get that information 359back from a remote (network) printer in this case. |
