Hi all,
I did see a thread from about 5 years ago regarding this but didn't want to bring that back from the dead as things may be different now anyway.
I installed an mpc 4504 and imc 3000 at a school earlier. They currently have 2 toshiba machines, which when they print anything it has a pop up asking for their department code (user code) and they type in a 4-6 digit code. Then when they go to photocopier, they type in that code and get their prints out. Ricoh drivers do not have that function built in but I found that if you build a driver with the 'Driver Packager NX' you can set it to have the auto pop-ups, then I set other defaults and set it to 'Hold prints'
I had already installed all of their department user codes before installation so that was done. I send a print job, it asks for the code, which was great, then you go to photocopier and the job has already been received and deleted automatically. All the users have black and white/colour copy and printing priviliges so that wasn't an issue, I tried it with the printing restrictions set to 'Restrict mono/colour' 'Restrict colour' 'PC Control' and 'Do Not Restrict' but every single time it fails. I see it receive the print job and delete it within 2 seconds, on the print error logs it has error 91 which is usually to do with print driver errors but seeing as it is the PCL 6 driver I used that shouldn't be an issue. What else could be causing this... OR is there another easier way to just get these damn pop ups to work like their Toshiba machines?
The reason for it is they have about 200 PC/Laptops and only about 8 of them are used by 1 person, the other 192 can be used by anyone, so I cannot put a persons user code into each driver individually, because 3 other people may use that same PC later in the day.
Does anyone have any suggestions, more info provided if necessary.
