Re: MPS and Linux HELP!
So some clarification first. PaperCut absolutely does support Mac. In fact, it is the only cost recovery/print control solution that I know of that actually installs in an all Mac environment. (Server and Client) It also is the only solution I know of that installs in a Linux environment. So both of your issues are solved with PaperCut. I included the install guides for Mac and Linux to get you started.

Re: Color Print Control
No, absolutely none of them do this. There is no MFP/printer (at least from Ricoh/Canon/HP/Lexmark/Kyocera) that will print a (truly) black document and click it for color. Now, there are many many times that a document appears to be B&W to the human eye and contains color to the computer's eye. The most famous instance of this is Acrobat 4. Acrobat4?!?!? you say? No one uses Acrobat4! But that's not true. For compatibility's sake, many scanners with a direct to PDF option (even...

Re: Postscript and Windows Authentication
Thanks Art. We are using simple authentication here and found that it does work when using direct tcp/ip printing but not when going through a print server. The other brands of copiers that we deal with (Toshiba, Sharp, Kyocera) don't have that problem with their PS drivers. Interesting to see what the bug in their driver is. Thanks no_dice

Re: Aficio 3045 user quotas
hello all, we have just had a solution or a workarond, up to now. We have got everything working as it should by using PCL 5 driver instead of PCL 6. We are still monitoring but for the past 2 days we had no more problems. Ricoh are working on PCL 6 for some sort of bug as well as a reason that causes the machine to fall back to printer defauks settings after each print job when using RPCS. Will keep you posted.

Critical Bug Opens Millions of HP OfficeJet Printers to Attack
A malicious fax sent to an HP Inc. OfficeJet all-in-one inkjet printer can give hackers control of the printer and act as a springboard into an attached network environment.

Re: IP Printing from Winxp to 551
From: Lee Sent: 10/15/2002 9:11 PM If you were sharing it out to the various operating systems, you would need to install drivers for those operating systems to make it "point and print." Otherwise, when clicking on the share to add the printer, you will get a message saying that drivers were not found and that you will need to provide them (browse to the appropriate downloaded drivers and click OK). On the 551 with a peerless controller, the Standard TCP/IP should work. If it doesn't, go to...

Re: Print Controller for 551
I think it will work! The firmware files for both controllers are the same (0.58). I have found one strange bug in the 1055 driver (definitley the driver, not the controller) and used a 700 driver to work around it with no side effects. I have submitted the bug to Ricoh to see what they say about it. Once I hear from them, I'll post some info on it here. I'll try to catch a 551 or 700 going through refurb and install one of these on it to see. Thanks! Lee
