16 _\bP_\ba_\bc reads the printer/plotter accounting files, accumulating
17 the number of pages (the usual case) or feet (for raster
18 devices) of paper consumed by each user, and printing out
19 how much each user consumed in pages or feet and dollars.
20 If any _\bn_\ba_\bm_\be_\bs are specified, then statistics are only printed
21 for those users; usually, statistics are printed for every
22 user who has used any paper.
23
24 The -\b-P\bP flag causes accounting to be done for the named
25 printer. Normally, accounting is done for the default
26 printer (site dependent) or the value of the environment
27 variable P\bPR\bRI\bIN\bNT\bTE\bER\bR is used.
28
29 The -\b-p\bp flag causes the value _\bp_\br_\bi_\bc_\be to be used for the cost
30 in dollars instead of the default value of 0.02 or the price
31 specified in /_\be_\bt_\bc/_\bp_\br_\bi_\bn_\bt_\bc_\ba_\bp.
32
33 The -\b-c\bc flag causes the output to be sorted by cost; usually
34 the output is sorted alphabetically by name.
35
36 The -\b-r\br flag reverses the sorting order.
37
38 The -\b-s\bs flag causes the accounting information to be summar-
39 ized on the summary accounting file; this summarization is
40 necessary since on a busy system, the accounting file can
41 grow by several lines per day.
42
43 The -\b-m\bm flag causes the host name to be ignored in the
44 accounting file. This allows for a user on multiple
45 machines to have all of his printing charges grouped
46 together.
