This Week in the Copier Industry 10 Years Ago (Third Week of May 2007)

From the amount of threads there was some awesome activity.  While reading through one of the threads, I noticed the Samsung SCX 6345N.  For me, this was the start of the A4 multifunctional era.  I believe cost for the 45ppm device was somewhere around $1,900 with MSRP about $4,000.  Not much room for margin, however I can remember acquiring many net new accounts with the Sammy because there was no need for 11x17.  Funny, it's ten years later and many manufacturers still refuse to give us full featured A4 devices that can staple, three hole punch and multi-folding.

Re: C2525 Scan to email HELP????

It resolves the name just fine. I can do a connection test from the smtp entry screen and it connects just fine. If I change any of the other variables, it fails instantly and logs why eg. invalid username/password. As it is now, it trys for like 5 minutes then just fails. And yes I did try it by IP address just for the heck of it and no different.

Re: RPCS Driver Question

I do all but the saddle stitching when I produce some of our company's inhouse marketing pieces. My files also are 12 pages in Word and 12 pages in Excel (12 pages in one workbook), and my pages are all letter size also. Use the "magazine" icon in the RPCS graphical driver; it looks like a sheaf of papers folded with the pages numbered. (Some models have two "magazine" icons; check how the icon depicts how the sheets are folded.) Also be sure to pick 11x17 as the output size. ("Magazine" is...

In addition, here is a great little file that I actually use while doing a demo of how this operation works. It depicts the setup process at the workstation using both the RPCS and PCL driver interfaces. It is only four pages, but does a great job of showing the customer what happens with a four page file (folded out put, not stapled due to the number of pages). I normally will leave these behind with the end users so they'll have a reference point on hand.

Re: Copy Limiting

John: With the Open Architecture, I'm sure this infomation can be written for the device. I would contact Ron Kieler @ Ricoh in west Caldwell in reference to this.

You could try to clear the scanner, printer, and ncs under 5801. You might have to put the printer ip, gateway, subnet, dns,and email settings back in,so write down the numbers, and reset up the scanner defaults. I just found another today and this worked for me sounded very similar. In my case I could not even scan to a folder using the cross over cable.

Re: C2525 Scan to email HELP????

Resolved! WOOOHOOOO Just thought I'd post the final solution. A tech on Smarka told me that the 2-wire router will not allow smtp traffic from the Savin machine pass. We had an extra SBC Yahoo modem here and and extra router. I took them up there and switched them out for the 2-wire modem/router and everything worked fine. Thanks for all of your help and hopefully this will help if it comes up for any of you down the road.

I think you will need Ricoh Print Directer Software (AKA Print Audit 5) or similar to limit the number of printing/copying per user. Been wrong before.

Re: Ricoh Rumor!! New Strategy?

I just figured the retail cpc with drum, toner (mono), 100K PM Kit and 200K PM Kit. Retail cpc is .0117116, not sure what the wholesale cost is, however how much would you add on a per copy basis for on-site service if the user was doing 3,000 pages a month in volume. I thought about .005 per page. Thoughts?

Re: Ricoh Rumor!! New Strategy?

Our dealership just purchased one of these SCX6345N's. I have been successful in setting up the printing, NetScan and scan-to-folder. But the scan-to-email is making me pull my hair out. And to make it worse, the smasung hotline isn't much help either. Just wondering if anyone tried this and got it working yet? Thanks for any help

Re: Sales Tips

One-of-A-Kind Marketing Many folks buy because of a "fear of loss". Can you market your product as a "one-of-a-kind" for a "limited time only?" Show them what they stand to gain as well as what they will lose if they don't order now. One auto salesperson we know always shows the purchaser a model that is a "second choice" in case the "preferred model" gets sold before the customer makes a decision. This can really speed up the sales process.
