Connecting to a quota server ensures that each user stays within a pre-defined range of printed or scanned pages.
When connected, the product will query the server each time a job is started to ensure that the user has pages available.
Any of the following quota server conditions might prevent the user from completing their job.
| ● |
| The quota server is unavailable.
|
|
| ● |
| The user account is not known by the server.
|
|
| ● |
| The user has exceeded their page quota.
