3. The report panel generates reports based on the data shown

• Compare users' current balance, print usage and settings
• CSV/Excel export provides a useful source for use by 3rd party applications
• Sort by total pages, current balance, name, restriction status
• Filter users by group or name

• Compare users' print usage
• See users' average print job statistics - do users mostly print large or small jobs?
• Also sort by total pages or jobs - see who is printing the most jobs or largest jobs

• Shows a breakdown of printing for each user by paper size, grayscale/color and simplex/duplex attributes
• See what type of jobs each user is printing, and how much of each type
• "Who is printing all the A3 documents?"

• Compare printer usage and settings
• See the overall usage history of each printer, and use the information to find trends - are certain printers more popular? Which printer is costing all the money?
• Plan for printer upgrades based on the size and number of jobs
• Filter reports by server, location or printer name

• Compare printer usage over a set time period (day, week, month or ad-hoc)
• See which printers are used most or least, and use the information to help re-organize printer distribution or evaluate printer upgrades

• See usage information for each printer, broken down by page size, grayscale/color and simplex/duplex
• Show information for all printers or a subset
• Use the information to see if your printers are being used effectively. Do you have an A3 printer that is only being used for A4? Perhaps an A4 only printer would be better suited
• See how many users are printing duplex documents. Do they need more encouragement to do so? Apply a discount for duplex documents!

• Shows what was printed today in detail
• See what printing is done on certain days in your organization - who printed on a Saturday?
• Filter data by printer, server, user, or document type. For example, report all grayscale documents

• Find trends in printing usage for each group

• Shows each printer's usage split for each group
• See which printers are used most by each group
• Is the accounts department using a printer more than the sales department? Perhaps the printer belongs in the accounts department!
• Use the information to re-distribute printers

• Shows a breakdown of group printing by paper size, grayscale/color and simplex/duplex attributes
• See which groups are using each paper size - do the large format printers belong in a different area?
