                     40: .I Pac
                     41: reads the printer/plotter accounting files, accumulating the number
                     42: of pages (the usual case) or feet (for raster devices)
                     43: of paper consumed by each user, and printing out
                     44: how much each user consumed in pages or feet and dollars.
                     45: If any
                     46: .I names
                     47: are specified, then statistics are only printed for those users;
                     48: usually, statistics are printed for every user who has used any paper.
                     49: .PP

                     52: flag causes accounting to be done for the named printer.
                     53: Normally, accounting is done for the default printer (site dependent) or
                     54: the value of the environment variable
                     55: .B PRINTER
                     56: is used.

                     59: .B \-p
                     60: flag causes the value
                     61: .I price
                     62: to be used for the cost in dollars instead of the default value of 0.02
                     63: or the price specified in
                     64: .IR /etc/printcap.
                     65: .PP
                     66: The
                     67: .B \-c
                     68: flag causes the output to be sorted by cost; usually the
                     69: output is sorted alphabetically by name.
                     70: .PP
                     71: The
                     72: .B \-r
                     73: flag reverses the sorting order.

                     76: .B \-s
                     77: flag causes the accounting information to be summarized on the
                     78: summary accounting file; this summarization is necessary since on a
                     79: busy system, the accounting file can grow by several lines per day.

                     81: The
                     82: .B \-m
                     83: flag causes the host name to be ignored in the accounting file.  This
                     84: allows for a user on multiple machines to have all of his printing
                     85: charges grouped together.
