Managing Log Files
Collecting the logs stored in this machine allows you to track detailed access data to the machine, user identities, usage of the machine's various functions, and error histories.
The logs can be deleted periodically to increase the machine's memory or the hard disk (when the optional hard disk is installed).
The logs can be viewed using Web Image Monitor controlled from networked computers or using the log collection server. (Web Image Monitor is a management tool installed on this machine to monitor this machine or configure settings for this machine by using a web browser.) Collected logs can be converted to CSV files and downloaded all at once.
When using the log collection server, you must configure the log transfer settings on the log collection server. See also the user's manual of the log collection server.
