In this article, you'll learn how to add printers to use the quota copy control functionality.
It is essential to activate the quotas in NDD Print Portal 360 so that this functionality is available during the process of adding the equipment.
Conditions for blocking copies
When and how users' jobs will be locked:
-
When the Color and Mono quotas are less than or equal to zero.

When the Color quotas are greater than zero and the Mono quotas are less than or equal to zero.
Limitations
Due to restrictions in the equipment's architecture, it may happen that the user's copy quota is exceeded during the process, resulting in a negative balance.
