NAME
       pac - printer/plotter accounting information

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/etc/pac  [	-Pprinter  ] [ -pprice ] [ -s ] [ -r ] [ -c ] [ -m ] [
       name ... ]

DESCRIPTION
       Pac reads the printer/plotter accounting files, accumulating the number
       of  pages  (the	usual  case)  or  feet	(for  raster devices) of paper
       consumed by each user, and printing out how much each user consumed  in
       pages or feet and dollars.  If any names are specified, then statistics
       are only printed for those users; usually, statistics are  printed  for
       every user who has used any paper.

       The  -P	flag  causes  accounting  to  be  done	for the named printer.
       Normally, accounting is done for the default printer  (site  dependent)
       or the value of the environment variable PRINTER is used.

       The  -p	flag causes the value price to be used for the cost in dollars
       instead of the default value of 0.02 or	the  price  specified  in  the
       printer database.

       The  -c flag causes the output to be sorted by cost; usually the output
       is sorted alphabetically by name.

       The -r flag reverses the sorting order.

       The -s flag causes the accounting information to be summarized  on  the
       summary	accounting  file;  this	 summarization is necessary since on a
       busy system, the accounting file can grow by several lines per day.

       The -m flag causes the host name to be ignored in the accounting	 file.
       This allows for a user on multiple machines to have all of his printing
       charges grouped together.

FILES
       /usr/adm/?acct	   raw accounting files
       /usr/adm/?_sum	   summary accounting files
       /etc/printcap	   printer capability data base - if  NetInfo  is  not
       running.

SEE ALSO
       printcap(5), netinfo(5)

BUGS
       The  relationship  between  the	computed  price	 and reality is as yet
       unknown.
