Ricoh mp301 print from memory device.

[COPIERMAN]

start to look at some of my mp301 that i buy from off lease and when i try print from memory device not able. i press printer button but doesn't have the option to select [Prt. From Dev] tab. I look through user tools print feature and also service mode but didn't see where it might be turn off.

what 'memory device' are you using?
what port?
did you upgrade firmware?

printing from a thumb drive what format has it been formatted to? fat32 or NTFS? what type of file are you trying to print?

I haven't update firmware but i thought this was standard feature on this model. i look at another mp301 and that one has the tab to print from a memory device.

Firmware can become corrupt... outdated firmware could be an issue..
What versions do you have on both?
Post config sheets for both working and not please

1: You need the HDD option
2: you need to make sure it's enabled in Printer SP mode

3: you need to understand that fairly routine issues like this have most likely been covered countless times in the forum and that you should AT LEAST try to find a solution for yourself.

......Coincidentally there's a similar situation right here: MP C300 print from usb drive

and here: MP 2001SP scan to usb and print from usb problem

and here:mp 2501 not printing from memory stick

From the installation procedures for USB2.0/SD Slot, set Scan SP 1013-1 from 0 to 1 to enable the port.

i just figure with today technology that they would come with hard drives, but i look at above answer and went to brochure and see it is an option. I should had look first sorry to waste people time.
