    4243   
    … …  
    4445    So to do its own accounting, <application>PyKota</application> has its own filters, for <application>CUPS</application> 
    4546    it's named <filename>cupspykota</filename>, which is in fact a <application>CUPS</application> backends wrapper, 
    46     and for <application>LPRng</application> it's named ########## TODO ########## . 
     47    and for <application>LPRng</application> it's named <filename>lprngpykota</filename>, as you have probably guessed. 
    4748    The procedure to plug the correct filter into your printing system is described in the  
    4849    <xref linkend="installation" endterm="installation"> chapter. 
    … …  
    5253    Currently with a <application>CUPS</application> internal accounting mechanism, the <filename>pstops</filename> 
    5354    filter can be bypassed. That's why <application>PyKota</application> uses its own backend. 
    54     The <filename>cupspykota</filename> backend wrapper ensures that jobs can't bypass the filtering mechanism, so you can use 
     55    The <filename>cupspykota</filename> backend wrapper ensures that jobs can't bypass it, so you can use 
    5556    any printer with any driver and any command line option, and you can be sure that your 
    5657    print job will be correctly accounted for. 
    … …  
    5859   
    5960  <para> 
    60     When used with an <application>LPRng</application> backend, the accounting filter is not defined the same way  
    61     input filters are, so the problem described above doesn't exist, and <application>PyKota</application> 
    62     may work with non-postscript printers, provided they can report their page counter and you know how to retrieve 
    63     it. 
    64   </para> 
    65    
    66   <para> 
    67     When you submit a print job, <application>PyKota</application>'s accounting mechanism is automatically launched by your printing system, 
    68     so it has to detect which system you are using (<application>CUPS</application> or <application>LPRng</application>) 
    69     and behave like if it was specifically designed for your printing system. Fortunately there's not a lot 
    70     of differences, the more important one is the exit codes used to tell the printing environment if a job 
    71     has to be accepted or rejected.  
    72   </para> 
    73    
    74   <para> 
    7561    When using the <literal>hardware</literal> accounting method, 
    76     the <application>cupspykota</application> CUPS backend  
    77     asks the printer for its internal page counter at the start and at the end of the print job, and 
    78     computes the values' difference so accounting is done immediately.  
     62    <application>PyKota</application> launches the script you specified to 
     63    ask the printer for its internal page counter at the start and at the end of the print job, and 
     64    computes the values' difference to know the job's size.  
    7965  </para> 
    8066   
    8167  <para> 
    8268    When using the <literal>software</literal> accounting method, 
    83     and if the user is still allowed to print, 
    8469    the command you specified is launched with the job's data on its  
    8570    standard input. Your command must print the job's size in number of 
    8671    pages on a single line on its standard output. This number is then 
    8772    read by <application>PyKota</application> and used to update the current user's quota information. 
    88     Of course checks are also done like with the <literal>hardware</literal> 
    89     accounting method, to see if the current job is allowed to be printed or not.

    2525     FROM THIS FILE, PYKOTA CAN'T BE USED ANYMORE WITH LPRNG. 
    2626      
    27      SUPPORT FOR LPRNG SHOULD BE RE-ADDED SOON WHEN A HUGE REWRITE 
    28      OF SOME PARTS OF PYKOTA WILL HAVE TAKEN PLACE 
     27     LPRNG SUPPORT IS CURRENTLY BEING REWRITTEN, AND YOU CAN 
     28     ALREADY PLAY WITH IT, BUT DON'T USE IT IN PRODUCTION UNTIL 
     29     THIS NOTE IS REMOVED.

    179      
    180     With LPRng, this is done just before the beginning of a job, and used  
    181     this to modify the *preceding* user's quota. So you're always late  
    182     of one print job, but this is generally ok.

    191 Apple LaserWriter 16/600 PS, both with CUPS and LPRng, under

     186supports this.

    244237  is already optimal. For PCL5 this is a completely different matter, 
    245238  and if you install Psyco you will never regret it ! 
    246   Same remark applies for PCL6 (aka PCLXL) but performance improvement 
    247   is yet to be fully tested (it is very high anyway). 
     239  Same remark applies for PCL6 (aka PCLXL) : the parser is completely 
     240  different, but the performance gain with Psyco is impressive.

    268261  the Print Server. The PostgreSQL client libraries' version must  
    269262  match the PostgreSQL version used on the Quota Storage Server.  
    270   BEWARE : under Debian Sarge, as of March 15th 2004, there's a 
    271   problem with python2.2-pygresql and python-2.3-pygresql, so please 
    272   install python2.1-pygresql and use Python 2.1 to install and run 
    273   PyKota. This is not a bug in PyKota, and this should be fixed 
    274   by Debian in a few days I hope.

    308296Go to the initscripts subdirectory of PyKota's sources, and choose 
    309 the appropriate storage backend for your configuration. Read 
     297the appropriate storage backend for your configuration. Read carefully 
    310298the associated README file and execute the initialization script

    315303sample configuration files to /etc/pykota/pykota.conf and  
    316 /etc/pykota/pykotadmin.conf. The installation script tries to do  
    317 this for you if needed and you agreed to this action. You need to  
    318 adapt these files to your own needs. Especially you have to create  
     304/etc/pykota/pykotadmin.conf (the installation script tries to do  
     305this for you if needed and you agreed to this action). You need to  
     306adapt these files to your own needs. Especially you may have to create  
    319307sections named after your own printers, and change the  
    320308administrator's email address which by default is root@localhost. 
    … …  
    342330          $ /etc/init.d/cupsys restart 
    343331           
     332        or :     
     333       
     334          $ /etc/rc.d/init.d/cupsysrestart 
     335           
     336        or any similar command depending on your operating system.

    358352         
    359353        Now double check /etc/pykota/pykota.conf  
    360         This file should contain a section named after the 
     354         
     355        You should manually create a section named after the 
    361356        printer you've just added, unless you have set 
    362357        all options globally. 
     358         
    363359        The new pkhint command can help you with correct settings  
    364360        for your printers, but don't rely on it because it is still 
    365         incomplete. 
     361        experimental work. To use pkhint, you have to feed it with 
     362        CUPS' printers.conf file this way : 
     363         
     364          $ pkhint </etc/cups/printers.conf 
     365         
     366        pkhint will try to tell you what is the best accounting 
     367        method for each printer and will print some lines you'll 
     368        just have to copy&paste in the appropriate sections in 
     369        /etc/pykota/pykota.conf 
    366370         
    367371        That's all. 
    … …  
    399403         
    400404        Save the file and restart CUPS. 
     405         
     406        Here too, you may find it interesting to use the pkhint command as 
     407        described above to help with manual configuration of the file 
     408        /etc/pykota/pykota.conf 
    401409 
    402410  - LPRng Printing System : 
    403411   
    404       For now LPRng support in PyKota is deactivated. Please be patient. 
     412    For each printer on which you want to use PyKota : 
     413     
     414        Modify the printer's entry in /etc/printcap : you have to add 
     415        the three following lines : 
     416         
     417          :ac=true:\ 
     418          :as=/usr/share/pykota/lprngpykota:\ 
     419          :ae=/usr/share/pykota/lprngpykota:\ 
     420           
     421        This will tell LPRng to activate accounting, and use the lprngpykota  
     422        accounting filter both at the start and at the end of printing.  
     423         
     424    When all modifications are done, just save the /etc/printcap file and     
     425    restart LPRng : 
     426     
     427          $ /etc/init.d/lprng restart 
     428           
     429        or :     
     430       
     431          $ /etc/rc.d/init.d/lprng restart 
     432           
     433        or any similar command depending on your operating system.   
     434         
     435    NB : the pkhint command can't be used with LPRng for now, so you     
     436         have to modify /etc/pykota/pykota.conf carefully. The comments 
     437         in this file will help you. 
    405438
