[4] E.C.M. (Electronic Copy Monitor)
This function can only be accessed by the Key Operator after a 8-digit ECM master
key code is entered. The Electronic Copy Monitor allows you to monitor all copying
activity by controlling ECM password accounts.
This feature can track copier usage for individual users and/or accounts as well as
limit access to the copier to authorized users. Copy quantity limits for specific
accounts can also be set. Use the ECM Key Operator Form provided at the end of this
section to record ECM password information.
The ECM stores up to 128 ECM passwords, each of which represents a separate
account that can be used for billing and recordkeeping. The number of users assigned
to each account may depend upon the billing system in operation and the number of
individuals and departments using the copier. When the ECM is activated, copying
can be performed only after a valid ECM password is entered.
Copy quantity and copy limit for each account can be visually confirmed on the
screen.
If ECM needs to be activated on your machine, contact your service representative.
The following ECM settings can be made:
1. Change E.C.M. Data:

5. Copy Limit Reached Effect:
