Abstract
An electronic reprographic printing system which is capable of scanning a set of documents, electronically storing in memory images of the scan documents, and printing the electronic images in accordance with operator specified reprographic system functions for the print job. Customer accounts are set up within the reprographic printing system, and billing rates for the various system functions are specified within each account. When a print job is to be performed, the system operator of the reprographic system can allocate the cost of the system functions of the print job to a default account, or to a particular customer account. The billing rates for the various accounts can be changed by the system operator, and statistical and billing reports can be generated covering many different time frames.
