    C258 restrict color copying - only b/w

    Hi,

    is there an option on Bizhub C258 to either restrict COPY function to only b/w copies or at least to set b/w copy and hide setting from user? This is a public copy machine, so I want to either admin-lock this setting to only black-n-white, or to remove this setting out of user view to be hardly accessible, so not everyone would be able to change it. Went through all WEB interface, but could not find any related settings.

    Kindly asking for some help. Thank you!

    Yes. You had to activate User Authentication with the Public User. Public user without login. You must set that Public User can copy only BW.

          Thanx...will try this and stick with it, unless username/password will be default screen, which they will not like and will confuse users.

            +1 for this

              I second the KM Panel. I have it on 2 copiers now. Only the Boss can Print in color.

                i don't work on konicas. but from past experience on other brands. if you setup user codes. i highly recommend you setup one for yourself, set as admin permissions, and don't give that code to the customer.

                  Well, I want to avoid that principle only due to login screen, which will confuse all other 200+ random users. I will probably go with KM Panel Customization tool as soon as I find where to download it from.

                    I just found DIP SW number 71 = HEX 02 should remove Color settings button from panel. Will try this, maybe easiest option.
