    You mean like Department Codes? Where are you slim? =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

    It's something like limiting a machine to only able to perform (print + copies) up to 100,000 unit per month. then it will maybe have errors or notification says limit reached. Afterthat next month it will recycle again.

    Department Codes can do this. Just set up a single department code and limit the number of copies. I assume that your enduser is not allowed to make changes, so you'll have to change the admin password. Monthly you'd have to clear the department code counts. If you are having difficulty with the operators manual, maybe slim can give you a click by click description. =^..^=

    Is it the same as setting user code per user? I checked that it only limits up to 200 copies....

    Sorry, I don't have the operators manual so I can't provide details. I can't believe Ricoh would limit you to 200 copies per cycle. Many of my customers do that in the first 5 minutes. =^..^=

    It might help to know what model you're referring to.

    1) Go to Google
    2) type in your model and "operators manual"
    3) press Enter
    4) read

    That up to 200 unit setting should always remain set as 1. It is a weighting factor. It can be used in the following manor:
    1. you have two user. User 1 and User 2
    2. You want to charge user 1 $0.15 per copy made and user 2 $0.35.
    3. Set the unit count for user 1 at 15 and user 2 at 35.


    What you want to use is print volume limits. Depending on the model of the MFP, this may have to be enabled in user tool - system settings - administer tools. Older models that do not support this will require Java be install and the User Account Limit v1.1 setup.
    'User Account Limits Application' for Ricoh copiers...
