When the BarTender System Database event target is enabled in Printer Maestro, printer events are logged to the BarTender System Database. This means that all events encountered by print jobs, both from applications in the BarTender Suite and non-BarTender applications can be accessed after the completion of a print job. Information such as the event time, severity, category, and printer are included in the System Database log.

To display inventory information, select one of the filter options under the Print Maestro: Printer Events header in the View Selector pane. You can choose from the following built-in filters or customize your own.

All Printer Events: Displays all printer events logged to the BarTender System Database.

Events by Printer: Displays all printer events logged to the BarTender System Database sorted by printer.

Custom: Create custom filters to display only printer events that meet a specific criteria. When clicked, the Custom Filter controls display at the top of the Printer Events View. For more information, see Creating Custom Filters.

After selecting the desired link, printer event information appears in the different panes that make up the History Explorer window. You can customize the display by sorting, grouping, or filtering the data in the BarTender System Database.
