46.Sh DESCRIPTION
47The
48.Nm
49utility reads the printer/plotter accounting files, accumulating the number
50of pages (the usual case) or feet (for raster devices)
51of paper consumed by each user, and printing out
52how much each user consumed in pages or feet and dollars.
53.Pp
54Options and operands available:
55.Bl -tag -width PPprinter
56.It Fl P Ns Ar printer
57Accounting is done for the named printer.
58Normally, accounting is done for the default printer (site dependent) or
59the value of the environment variable
60.Ev PRINTER
61is used.
62.It Fl c
63Cause the output to be sorted by cost; usually the
64output is sorted alphabetically by name.
65.It Fl m
66Cause the host name to be ignored in the accounting file.
67This
68allows for a user on multiple machines to have all of his printing
69charges grouped together.
70.It Fl p Ns Ar price
71The value
72.Ar price
73is used for the cost in dollars instead of the default value of 0.02
74or the price specified in
75.Pa /etc/printcap .
76.It Fl r
77Reverse the sorting order.
78.It Fl s
79Accounting information is summarized on the
80summary accounting file; this summarization is necessary since on a
81busy system, the accounting file can grow by several lines per day.

84.Ar name ;
85usually, statistics are printed for every user who has used any paper.
