This Week in the Copier Industry 10 Years Ago, The Second Week in August 2008

 

There's an interesting thread below titled A4 Device Poll.  It's a short thread and I disable the poll site years ago. However, from reading the thread it was about ten years ago that A4 devices were starting to talk hold. What I can't believe is that the major A3 manufacturers have continued to lower prices on the A3 boxes and move very slowly with offering full functionality for A4 devices. It's been ten years!

Enjoy the threads from ten years ago this week.

Ricoh 2075 - Printing Custom Size Paper

·
Hello all, I’m having a bit of an issue with a Ricoh 2075. Our customer wants to be able to print to size 8x10.5 paper from tray 2. She’s able to get the printer to print one copy of a multiple copy job, but after that it refuses to print the rest of the job. The tray itself is set for 8x10.5 landscape and I’ve set that size into the machine under paper tray settings.

An extremely time consuming process, however, at this time we don't know what brought this on, most
