You might want to take a look at moving to something like the Xerox

Users have to ask for the login, which allows us to at least track which users have color priveleges and which do not. Our take was to provide access on a case-by-case basis, which is labor-intensive, but allows us to match costs with approved users, and to take action as necessary.
