    MX-M3070 user control question.

    Hello, I am working at a lawyers office. They assign each customer a user control number. The head guy wants it so when sending a print you have to put in code number each time. Right now whatever number is in job control stays as default. He also wants to be able to see what number is currently in there. Maybe you can but I dont think so. But if it is possible to have to put code in each time when sending a print that would make customer happy. Thanks for any help on this.

    On the driver side? Yes. Turn on "Auto Job Control Review" in Job Handling

    On the machine side? Also, yes. Turn on Print Release on the machine, and enable it in the driver in job handling. IF it's something they want forced, you can go in to Printing Properties > Configuration> Printing Policies, and force Print Release on drivers so they can't change it.

      That may make IT & administration happy, but I'd imagine that the endusers are going to be less than enthusiastic about it. =^..^=
      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.

        Thanks for your reply. When I turn on the auto job control review in job handling, When you go to make a print a box pops up where you would enter the user code. But it always has the last number that was used saved. Cust says I would like to see this blank everytime and we then put in the code we want to use.When I say that number is the last one that was used, he says well how do I know what that number is? I told him I dont think you can see the number so no one goes into your computer and gets your user number. He says I want that to be default blank everytime so we have to input user number. Maybe it cant be done but the guy is the boss so if possible I would like to make him happy. The crummy part is all his workers know how it works and are fine with it. Also it works the same as the machine this one replaced for years.

          All the endusers were fine with everything. The boss-owner is the guy who makes everything there difficult.

            One off requests are always tricky. I agree though, it would be nice to see them, or at least be able to enable an option for it. Kyocera drivers used to have the ability to show a list of users, but it wasn't the option that popped up every time. I don't personally like the "Auto Job Control Review", mostly because the name is very confusing; but also because it's pretty limited.

              I'm not quite sure what you want, but it's the dumbest idea ever for a single user per PC (I do this only for PC in teachers' rooms).

              First, to remove the default :
              Printer "Preferences", 5 tab "Job Handling", remove the "Authentication"
              [PRINTER]|
              PRINTING WHEN THE USER AUTHENTICATION FUNCTION IS ENABLED|BP-70C65|04-02_002|manual download|MFP / Copier / Printer products|Office solution: Sharp

              Then if you want to enter your code for EACH print job :
              Printer "Properties", last tab "Configuration", "Printing Policy", "User Authtentication"
              2024-04-26 21_41_08-Window.jpg

              Now EACH job will ask for the user number.

              "He also wants to be able to see what number is currently in there."
              Why ? I don't understand the purpose.

              A less retarded system that I apply for lawyers is each user have a folder on the MFP with a code, the code is in the driver, they need to type the code only once in front of the MFP to access their folder and release whatever job(s).

                Thanks for your reply. I am going to go over what you posted, Ill try to explain better what they are doing. They Have a list of clients, different attorneys ect.They all have their own user code. When the customer is working on a client they put that clients number in so when they are done working with client they can charge them for any prints made while working on their case. So almost everytime the customer makes prints they have to put in the user code for whatever client the prints are for. So he would like it if possible so that the user codeafter making the prints, the code clears out so they have to enter a code each time. Hope that makes sense.

                  That's probably what they want, but I've never used it so can't comment more on it.

                    Thanks. I just got to shop and got to try out your suggestion with the printing policy. That does work. Either today or tomorrow I will go to customer and see if that is good for him. I think it should be. we will see. Thanks again.
