We have a customer who wants a copy counter on his shop till and tha ability to stop the machine from been used without his permission, i know there are several products out there that can do this , but is there a cheaper way to do this by means of connecting the meter away from the copier i.e. at a shop till?

ideas for a remote copy counter
Networking skills are advantageous but use of a 3m vacuum cleaner is essential -
You can implement user codes on the machine. Customers will need to enter user code to access machine. Restrictions of all types can be set when user codes are implemented.
He can keep track of count via Web Image Monitor, by typing IP in web browser of your PC. You will see a counter tab. Choose it and there is you current count.
There is also a few more programs you can download from Ricoh's website for free. I thin Smart Device Monitor Lite is free and works failry well. -
Ditto on the user codes for cheapest. There are also a seemingly endless number of plug in counters. We serviced some awhile back that you actually took with you when you were done copying. I can't recall the brand name of the unit, but a google search would turn up a bunch of options.the savin2535 is displaying well bet the hiter lamp is not shining and the lamp had been tested o.k.please kindly help.Samir: No, not again. I... why does it say paper jam when there is no paper jam? I swear to God, one of these days, I just kick this piece of shit out the window.

Hecon Keys were the most common in the 80s. Also Canon had card readers. Both were fairly expensive and required administration.
When built in account codes became universally available these devices went by the wayside. I agree with the previous posters. =^..^=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.
