Comment:

I have an IBM Infoprint 1352 set up as a direct IP network printer. Someone has printed confidential information on it and I need a print log from either the printer or the pc it was printed from to prove it. Can someone please tell me how I can get either?

The significant problems we have cannot be solved at the same level of thinking with which we created them.

Look at event viewer on the pc. Unless auditing was enabled I don't believe it tracks print jobs. No logging on any printer I am aware of.
Imagine the power if you knew how to internet search
