Printer Logging Through Logpaths
In the NIC product manual, destinations are described as logical
queues with associated models and logpaths. Models determine if
any extra processing is needed with the print jobs passing through,
and logpaths determine whether any logging is needed for each
job.
Each logpath on the NIC consists of two parts:
TYPE The type of log information to be captured.
The choices are job for job ID and username,
user for user ID (and three messages per
job), cksum for file checksums, printer for
special printer feedback, and ioport for
parallel printer status messages.
PORT Where this log information will be sent to. The
choices are a TCP port number (e.g., 2000),
an email address (including an alias), or a
central host running a SYSLOG daemon.

(e.g. Telnet
ipaddress
). The command to view the logpath
settings is:
