    MP 301 VM Card Missing

    Hi all,

    I have a question, my colleague installed a new MP 301 with embedded Equitrac PCC so needed a VM card, he remove it from a spare 301 we had & installed the new machine fine.

    However now we need to install the other 301 with the missing VM Card also needed with PCC, is the VM card just a standard SD card with the JAVA sdk on it that I can download from my ricoh, extract to my SD card & fit it in slot 2?
    Let us eat, drink, and be merry, because tomorrow we may die!

    Hi

    The VM card is not standard on the MP301, but an option that needs to be ordered fro Ricoh in order to run SDK applications.
    Press the GREEN button!!

      x2. The VM card is a licensed product like the PS chips.
      It's 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.

      Hit it.

        x3. Ricoh places a security code on option SD cards that cannot be copied.
