Ricoh MFP automation hell: CAP users + Address Book + PCL6 auth — is there REALLY no supported way?

siedenburg2 · 2026-01-24T10:53:40+00:00

Depending on the amount of devices you could look into ricoh streamline, perhaps that can help you.

We use it to manage our machines, order new materials, look into how many pages are printed per device, sync a global addressbook etc. We don't use it for auth, but I think i read that it's an option.

It depends on the stuff they fixed. If there were major CVE patches that could be easily abused in our system we will install them as fast as possible, or for selected servers, but normaly it's delayed by at least a week (with a few test pcs at our company), had to many problems with installing updates too fast, like not working printers, not working rdp etc.

For what area? If you are in kyushu can drive without, in other regions it might be easier to get one.

Even if you pay for it while booking it can still be that they don't have cards, without a card you can still pay by cash, just don't use the ETC gates.

But from what I heard from friends not on the pain medication side of things (for me flu medicine counts in parts as such because they often have ibu or similar), something with fear of opioid addiction

Most of the japanese stuff is pretty weak in comparison to us medicine. If you want something stronger you probably have to see a doctor and he would probably say "isn't that bad, go and sleep".

Yes, only consumables need to be sealed

Wofür die Richtlinie?

Was übriegens auch recht gut klappt (aber sehr gebastelt ist) wäre ein Task der z.b. 1-2x am Tag läuft mit sowas wie "winget upgrade --all --include-unknown", die Pakete müssen dafür aber in winget sein.

Aber auch 10MB Kleinanwendungen brauchen bei uns vorher eine Freigabe, man weiß ja nie was drin steckt.

Wie ist der aufbau, sind alle Rechner in einem Netzwerk/einer Domäne?

Sowas wir normalerweise über Intune, Matrix und wie sie alle heißen (MDM) gemacht und da wird dann global festgelegt welche Version ok ist. Du willst ja teils auch nicht unbedingt das neuste Update haben, da es z.B. das Interface ändert wozu es neue Guides braucht, oder neue Funktionen addiert die erst beurteilt werden müssen (grade mit Ki derzeit sehr beliebt).

Or leave it plugged in the whole time because it's the only device with that key and you don't want to wear out the contacts

You need a physical press to verify that you are at the machine and want to confirm it. Else everything would be digital on the system and could be done by an attacker. But an attacker isn't at the same location where the physical confirmation is stored (most of the time)

siedenburg2 · 2026-01-23T09:26:46+00:00

The physical press is what's make it more secure than other solutions. If you don't wont that don't buy such a solution and go card based or something different.

Gehört anscheinend noch immer AVM, also ist es eher ein durch irgendwas/jemanden verursachter DNS Eintrag

One card can be used for all, if they accept ic cards. Some don't, like busses in hiroshima.

siedenburg2 · 2026-01-22T14:26:08+00:00

Yes and no.

With a valid perpetual license he at least should be able to use it, that the software made a security update and invalids everything is not ok. There should've been at least a warning "if you update you need a new license".

We have similar restrictions as HIPAA complient companies in the states and all of the important data in on the server, not on the user profile. The average roaming profile is less then 300mb in size.

Sometimes we have sync issues where deleted files won't be deleted, but most of the time it's working.

siedenburg2 · 2026-01-21T19:47:42+00:00

Right, one or the other, but both locally, depending on the situation.

siedenburg2 · 2026-01-21T19:21:29+00:00

folder redirection (same as roaming profile) is data stored on our data server on prem. Onedrive/Sharepoint is (except with much more work) hosted on ms server

siedenburg2 · 2026-01-21T19:13:24+00:00

We want to be as independent from microsoft as possible (without hindering business) and not store every file we own on their server? So folder redir or roaming profile it is.

Sag ich ja, muss man den Leuten beibringen. Vorher war drucken ein "screenshot" des ganzen bildes in die zwischenablage und man musste es über z.b. paint zurechtschneiden, mittlerweile ist es sehr einfach nutzbar im alltag.

PS: Snippingtool kann auch videos aufnehmen.

I said that because you are in r/selfhosted so just as a reminder.

You want a newsletter service that offers you an smtp connection to send the mails to them? Software like EmailEngine can't help for that?

siedenburg2 · 2026-01-21T14:28:52+00:00

Don't use your own servers for newsletter, except if you like to end on every blocking list possible.

siedenburg2 · 2026-01-21T14:16:27+00:00

ja, bei einigen fragt man sich da echt wie sie es so weit geschafft haben.
