My prospect has told me that the Konica Minolta product they are looking at offers the capability to set specific copy quota's for users so that they may have unlimited b&w, but have 100 color copies per user for example.

#1. Is anyone familiar with this feature on the Konica Minolta systems or other manufacturer's systems?

#2. Assuming Ricoh products don't offer this, how would you handle this question?

Thanks for any input!

If you ignore the cost recovery aspect of Ricoh's Print and Copy Vending Embedded Solution, it may work for you. I assume you would be able to set B&W values to 0 and set color values to 1 with a one hundred limit and get what you need. This is a new product so I haven't actually worked with it.
In case my attachment didn't work, the brochure number is R2480.
I sold Konica Minolta for 3 years and worked with Konica/Minolta products for 7. One of the major differences between Konica Minolta and Ricoh is administration and ease of use. It is true that Konica Minolta has this feature. The problem with it is that you can not make the quotas time sensitive. It can start to get confusing to the end user when they have to go back in and allow another 100 copies. Ricoh does not have this feature because the designers probably thought that it would confuse the end user, which it does on the Konica Minolta, even from the browser interface.
