Hi every one I have one very stupid problem with Konica c308. I recently bought a Konica Minolta c308 second hand. The machine does not want to print in color from the computers. It copies in color from a sheet without any problems. I run a test page from the machine settings and everything is fine. When I try to print in color from the computer some times, a message appears that the function has been stopped by the machine Administrator. I have all the access passwords but I still have not found where to start and stop color printing. Please help.
Konica c308 disable color printing

this may help.
its possible the public account is displayed at walk-up but color printing is restricted.
you may find answers in the attached i hope.
is all user authentication off?We know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two.
The medication helps though... -
Thanks for the reply and the manual. I have an idea for a different approach. If I can factory reset the device, it will print in color. Maybe I can fix some limitations that I haven't discovered yet.
I tried System 1 -> Initialization -> Clear All Data. Then I formatted the hard drive. That didn't fix the color printing issue. Is there a way to reset all settings to factory defaults?Comment

is it past consumable life in anything? or a PM call or something else restricting color.
ill ask again, is user authentication off? account track off?
its likely one of those three.
no idea why you thought formatting would do anything. its storage not programming.
do you have a color driver? they made a black only driver for the 8 series color machines.We know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two.

But we don't know much as author keeps saying he wants to reset machine and blah-blah-blah.
Good luck then and bye.

Guys, I'm a big idiot. In a hurry, I installed drivers for 308 instead of C308. After changing the drivers, everything works as it should. Thanks for the help and your time!👍 2Comment
