Abstract:
A system is provided for maintaining imaging device (IDev) accounting data. A primary accounting server (PAS) sends messages to an imaging device (IDev) and to a lightweight accounting back-up server (LABS). The PAS receives messages from the IDev and updates a primary IDev activity log (PIAL). The IDev receives messages from the Primary server and a LABS in communication with the IDev. The LABS sends and receives messages and data from the IDev and from the PAS. The IDev sends a record of its activity to the PAS when the PAS is available, and the PAS maintains a primary IDev activity log (PIAL). The IDev sends a record of its activity to the LABS when the PAS is not available and the LABs maintains a temporary IDev activity log (TIAL). The PAS updates the PIAL with the TIAL data after a period of unavailability.
