Job Status tab (Device Configuration)
This tab allows you to enable and configure options for tracking jobs.

Re-cost document based on accounting feedback from printer | Use accounting information from the printer to calculate costs shown in the logging information. |

Konica Minolta iOption devices
You only need to configure settings on this tab for Konica Minolta iOption devices when IPP destinations are used and you wish to track print job status via IPP.
This only works with printers that support RFC 2910, RCF 2911, and IPP/1.1.
In that case, use the following settings:
- Select the Track job status check box.
- Select the IPP Default Job Status profile.
- Clear the Read job status from printer check box.
The easiest way to confirm that this feature is working correctly is to clear the Track Print check box on the Device Details tab, and to enable the IPP job status on this tab. Then, send a print job to the printer, and run a report to see that the job accounting data was captured. If it does not get captured, clear the Track job status check box on this tab, and select the Track Print check box on the Device Details tab.
