Accepting B&W Copy and Print Jobs without Entering a Department ID

Return to Overview


To "Settings/Registration Table"

The Allow Black Copy/Print Jobs and Allow Black Printer Jobs modes enable you to restrict the machine to accept only black-and-white print jobs, and reject color print jobs without entering a Department ID and password.


  1. Press (Settings/Registration) → [Management Settings] → [User Management] → [Department ID Management].
  1. Press [On].
  1. Select [On] or [Off] → press [OK].

<Allow Black Copy/Print Jobs>:

[On]: [Black Copy/Print] appears on the Enter the Department ID and Password screen.
[Off]: [Black Copy/Print] does not appear on the Enter the Department ID and Password screen.

<Allow Black Printer Jobs>:

[On]: The machine accepts only black-and-white print jobs from computers that do not correspond with a registered Department ID.
[Off]: The machine does not accept black-and-white print jobs from computers that do not correspond with a registered Department ID.

If you set [Allow Black Copy/Print Jobs] to 'On', [Black Copy/Print] appears on the screen for entering the Department ID and password.

To copy or print in black-and-white, press [Black Copy/Print].

  • If you set <Allow Printer Jobs with Unknown IDs> to 'On', all print jobs are accepted. Therefore, the Allow Black Printer Jobs setting is ignored.
  • If you want to use functions other than copy/print in the Black mode such as copy/print in the Auto (Color/Black) mode for [Select Color], scan and store in mail box, or scan and send, you must enter the Department ID and password.
