Print Log entries are made before the login entry is made in the Access Log.
Details of series of jobs (including reception, processing, and output of the jobs' data) are combined into single entries.
When the printer receives a print job, it creates an ID for the job and records this in the job log. The printer then creates a login ID for the print job and records this in the access log. It then creates a job log entry detailing the job's processing and outputting (under the same login ID). When the printer has finished processing the job, it creates a logout entry and places this in the access log.
Entries detailing the reception, processing, and output of a series of print jobs are created in the job log first, and then the login and logout details of those jobs are recorded in the access log.
