ECM (Electronic Copy Monitor) Function Setting [4]
This function can only be accessed by the Key Operator after an 8-digit ECM master key 
code is entered. The Electronic Copy Monitor allows you to monitor all printing activity by 
controlling ECM password accounts.
This feature can track printer usage for individual users and/or accounts as well as limit 
printer access to only authorized users. Print 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 1,000 ECM passwords, each of which represents a separate 
account that can be used for billing and record keeping. 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 printer. When the ECM is activated, printing can be 
performed only after a valid ECM password is entered.
Print quantity and print limits 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] E.C.M. data edit: 
Change, add, or delete ECM data, and reset the print count of the individual account.
[2] E.C.M. all count reset:
Clear the print count for all accounts.
[3] E.C.M. function setting:
Turn the ECM function on or off, and set conditions to stop immediately, stop after job is 
completed or display a warning message when print limit is reached.
