I have a customer that has a 2035s/p it's about 10 months old. They don't have a service contract. The Hard Drive blew! Their IT guy said on the hard drive there was a website where he keyed in the serial number of the blown hard and the website said...

Re: Color adjustment Savin 3224(B147 series)
but the Savin can't. Again the Minolta is the better machine and the customer is not worried what extras the Savin comes with. They want the better print/copy quality. I did talk to the customer an informed them the the Minolta 3102 and it's variants from othe dealers is a discontinued item. The KyoceraMita sales person told the customer that this was a brand new box on the market and that they could get it at a special price. I informed them that it is at a special price because it is

Re: aficio 240 Scan Problem
YES, GREAT! If NO, start checking all connections and boards. These include the video cable from 240 to computer, print control board in PC - try another port, and the interface board inside the 240. If all of these check out, and still no scanning, call Ricoh tech support.

I want to use combine feature to copy on something in the bypass but whenever we select combine the bypass "grays out". Is there a way to make the bypass an available paper source for combine feature?

I've been in copier biz since 1985 have seen LOTS of copiers come and go, some terrible (somebody mentioned the Ricoh 5560 the other day) some great (1022/1027,1015,2018,/551/700/1060/1075/2060/2075). ALL the new equipment is a billion times better than the equipment in the old days. A BILLION. Really , the Ricoh equipment line is amazing. That having been said, the series you speak of, with the cleaning assembly above the drum, is not a real clean running machine. Drums should go close to

Re: CL7000 Question
Jay ·
The IS100, IS200, and IS300e can be connected to the any of the Ricoh printers. The 300e is the usual choice for the CL7XXX because it can do 11X17 but any of them will work.

Any Canon folks out there? Is the IR6000 still a new product or is it discontinued? What about service and selling price for a school type account? Thanks for any help. John

This has also fustrated me at times: Average volume: What the copier can do reliably on a monthly basis. Max. Copy volume: What the copier can do in a crucnh situation, meaning a high months volume. Duty Cycle: No clue

Re: DWG errors
In addition to printing DWG's from AutoCAD, native DWG files are supported as part of a job set using Plotclient WIN. A full seat of AutoCAD installed on the Plotbase Server is required to support the Plotclient WIN workflow. As Bandit41076 points out, you can also get more info by right clicking on the job in the history line. Make sure your AutoCAD version that's loaded on the Server is as least as recent as the DWG file creation version.

The issues were Window components and firewall. The IT person did not want to change these settings. When changed, everything worked great. These are the REAL LIFE situations that we service reps encounter every time we need to connect one of our products. Sales sells it, and the buyer, buys it. Nether know how to connect it, or what’s involved.

Canon IR C3220...just kidding. I have found the 2238 series to be very good. Even better copy quality from the glass than the Canon.

Re: Warranty on Ricoh copier parts
I doubt it directly from Ricoh. Most Hard Drive manufacturers cover the hard drive anywhere from 1 to 3 years. You have to go directly to them for that. I did years ago when a hard drive failed on an AF450. It depends on the manufacture and if it was originally purchased by Ricoh and shipped to Singapore or Taiwan, this might have an impact on whether the Mfg will ship a warranty replacement to a different country.

Re: Lease rate check
John ·
I would be curious to see what your rates are when you visit with GE. Our owner adds points to our rates from GE and our rate for a $10K-75K deal is .0306. Try selling the difference in lease price on a 50K deal when your competitor is using a .0274 rate.

I will post them when I get through with my meetings tomorrow. We are on the hunt for other viable leasing companies to use. Who do you guys recommend??? Any word about this USXL (US Express leasing)??? Thanks

Re: Lease rate check
more "Damaged in Shipping" charges, no more "We didn't get the Cancelation Letter in time" etc. You will also gain easy early upgrades and increased profit opportunities at the back end. My company pays salesreps extra to use Clune because they save so much time and money from not having to deal with "the other" leasing companies as much. I have no relationship with this company except that of being one of their customers but I believe in them so much that I would be willing to field any calls

I have been able to print on Mylar tabs from drawer 4 or 5 only with the tab sheet holder. Test the brand of mylar you are using to make sure its in spec and will work. I would make sure the Micropress is beefed up to the max to drive 4 and contact EFI directly to have a TR expert come in for the install (the times I've done micropress/4105 there is always soething that comes up in the 12th hour and they need to have someone from Phoenix support working with your guys or their expert to get it

Monthly volume????
Is there anybody out there who can explain the the difference between: Average copy volume Max. copy volume Duty cycle for Ricoh products. Duty for 3228 is 200K/month. Unit lift is 3.000K Does that mean that you can run 200K pr. month for 15 month? I dont think so... And then there is color ratio!

Is anyone having problems with the 350/1035/2035 series?
Ted ·
We want to know if anyone is experiencing the same problems we have been for years with the 350/450; 1035/1045 & 2035/2045 series. Our techs say these machines are horrible with dusting (i.e. toner everywhere), drums not lasting for anywhere close to full life,, develpoer not lasting anywhere close to full life, and the machines not going reliably from PM to PM. An old service guy from Ricoh (who is no longer there) told us that these machines do have a problem. But Ricoh's offical answer is

Cats use fax as toilet, spark house fire TOKYO (Reuters) - Two kittens picked the wrong place to relieve themselves when they urinated on a fax machine, sparking a fire that extensively damaged their Japanese owner's house. Investigators in the western city of Kobe have concluded that the fire in January was caused by a spark generated when the urine soaked the machine's electrical printing mechanism. The fire damaged the kitchen and living room before it was put out by the house's owner, who

Help w/UNIX

I have a customer using HP Unix, they want to connect a 2022SP. The purpose is to move the three part forms from the Dot matrix printer to the Aficio 2022. I was asked if we can add a staple to stapler to our device. Can we? Is there a way to make this work that when the three forms print, they can then be atapled. Do we need to use BrightQ? Thanx Art
