since its a school, they may be able to claim the damage as vandalism.
see what their insurance covers, you may just sell 2 new machines if you cant go the legit path.
We know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two.
The medication helps though...
Pardon my ignorance for asking, but does the copying of money on KM machines disable them??? I have known people to copy items such as checks, titles & various certificates with holographic foil or micro print on other brands of Mfp's, in other words the mfp will black/blank the image or expose the micro print prominently!!!
Depends on the amount of money they copied, after +- 10 copies the machine locks up and gives a security code error. Customer is screwed. There is a big sticker that explain this to customers on the scanner.

Makes Sense!!! I wonder if this "error" can be cleared with the KM Mainboard reset tool or if the error propagates throughout the system & gets stored on other boards which store data?! Either way, there is some SERIOUS expense involved and most definitely a teachable moment for the customer!!![emoji15]
The sticker is small for most dumb a** customers.
However learned something new. Thanks Thayer.

Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.
Just a followup: While we were trying to figure out something to do, the customer called us back. Apparently pressing "Reset" several times cleared the error condition on both machines. Apparently it wasn't the +/- 10 times to brick the machine.
We haven't stood in front of the machine, but I'll be interested in knowing the code. =^..^=
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.

Thoughts Welcome!!! Thanks!

security reasons.. on COLOR machines mainly.
checks - titles - certs (NOT BONDS) can be copied in MONO mode only on most units and then they should increase/decrease size of replication (ratio)

I'm surprised that's even an issue on a B&W copier. I thought only the color machines had that feature.
The machine does have a color scanner though. Have seen a similar issue before where the customer was scanning checks to email and the mfp would error code. Only by making a copy of the check and scanning the printout to file would work. Machine was b&w.
