Information sent to printer for Job Accounting purposes
Printing jobs sent from drivers on the client (e.g., PC) may send personally identiable information to HP’s
Printing and Imaging devices. This information may include, but is not limited to, user name and client name from
which the job originated that may be used for job accounting purposes, as determined by the Administrator of
the printing device. This same information may also be stored with the job on the mass storage device (e.g., disk
