Konica Minolta BizHub C3850 No Printing on Windows 10

Dustin is right here, I always do mine manually and never use an installer. Also check firmware. Make sure you don't have a duplicate IP issue. Download the basic driver from KM and use that when you do the process manually.

Authentication was enabled but not properly set:
I had to got to :
Printer preferences -> Basic tab -> User Authentication and Account Track -> SET THE PROPER PASSWORD -> VerifyAfter that the computer was properly authorized to print =).

Now that's just silly.

Hahahah, that's silly usually you will get the requirement on the printer and say that it needs to authenticate. My issue is different

Interesting - never seen that before. But I've never used user auth on a printer before either.

@Romo Why is it setup like that?

Just a guess here - but if you want authentication on printing - how else would you do it?

PIN or LDAP would be my guess.

@Dashrender Ok but why is there authentication on printing? Is there a problem with someone printing when they should not be? Just looking for details as I've never done this before.

There are many options - but those sound like they require an external source, where the current one appears to only require the printer itself (likely with an add-on package).

I've had to do this before and it was because the business paid per page, and thus wanted to know if people were printing off things that they shouldn't.
It's just a means of accountability. It John is printing off his kids fundraiser flyers on the company dime. . .

I had to enable this years ago. Printing was out of control. User accountability was cited. We used AD and tied the printers into the login. Each user had individual printers mapped. I realize that this is nowhere near efficient, but it was pushed this way by the powers that be. No biggie once it was done. We don't have huge numbers of new users or user changes that it's a pain.

Seems odd that you would control it via a password on the printer tab. Can't you just control it from the print queue on the server? or is the printer doing LDAP/AD auth and the users are printing direct?

I prevent most users from printing color. We don't prevent or monitor B/W print usage.

We have AD tie-in for each printer capable of doing it. Most of what we have supports it. The users pull in once we let it cook.
EDIT: The users have the printers mapped for each workstation ~ 80 users total who can print. I also set the printer port as an IP address. I h * a * t * e the wsd mapping. Nothing but trouble

So you have to manually set something in the print driver to get the creds to pass to the printer to then be auth'ed by AD? Sucks that the driver does just pass along the current logged in Windows user.

Yes. C`est la vie

@DustinB3403 Ok cool I get that, thanks

@Dashrender Got it. Our departments have their own budget so if they want to print color they can but they figured out fast to be responsible for their own paper.

That seems like a bad approach, since any given department could be forced to stop work "because they overran their paper budget".
