Printscreated

Printscreated is a field name or concept encountered in software systems that track printing activity. It refers to the number of print outputs that have been created by a given process, user, job, or device. The term is not tied to a single standard and may appear in documentation, data models, APIs, and logs across platforms.

Semantics and data type: In most implementations, printscreated is an integer representing a non-negative count. The value can be a cumulative total since deployment, a per-session counter, or a per-job tally. It is often documented alongside related fields such as printsqueued and printscompleted, and may be nullable or default to zero when no prints exist.

Applications: In databases, printscreated may be stored as a column in a table recording print jobs or device statistics. In APIs, it can be returned as part of a status object to expose throughput. In analytics dashboards, it supports measuring production or usage.

Considerations: Naming conventions vary, so teams should define the exact semantics of printscreated in the data model and ensure consistent interpretation across systems. Clarify whether the value is time-bounded, cumulative, or per session, and document update rules to avoid ambiguity.
