Configure printer meters
In NDD Orbix, there are two main types of meters:
Reading meters: these are all meters obtained directly from the printer during reading by the monitoring agent. These meters reflect the raw data extracted from the equipment, such as Mono Print, Color Copy, Mono Fax, among others.
System or customized meters: these are consolidated meters, created from calculation rules that use reading meters as a basis. The system makes these meters available as a single piece of information ready to be used in the closing process, facilitating management and ensuring standardization between different manufacturers and models.
Example:
For a given manufacturer, model or series of printers, the customized A4 Mono meter can be defined as the sum of the Print Mono, Copy Mono and Fax Mono reading meters. This configuration ensures that the print volume is consolidated accurately, reflecting all activities relevant to billing.
