We received in from are used copier wholesaler a Ricoh C3000 with the dataoverwrite option. My question relates to when you what to fax out a document and have to manually enter the fax number you have to enter it in 2 times before it sends out. Is this because the dataoverwrite option or is this a simple fax setting that needs to be changed. Also can the dataoverwrite option be removed from the machine as most of our customers do not need the option.

I had a customer call this morning about the fax option on a Savin 9050spf. He says when receiving a fax, the machine will print out the first page only, but not the rest of the pages. The faxes receive to memory for printing, but will not print more than the first page, and the other pages are deleted. Any suggestions?

Duplex printing: Aficio MP C3500 on OS X Posted by: Chris O'Brien (IP Logged) Date: March 27, 2007 07:50AM I'm using the Ricoh-Aficio_MP_C3500_PXL.ppd pxlmono based driver on OS X 10.4 with an Aficio MP C3500 (no postscript). Everything works well except duplex printing - the jobs just come out single-sided despite the option setting. Duplexing works using a generic PCL 5c driver, but this doesn't allow color and some other printer options. The printer config page lists RPCS[3.3.25.1.1], PCL 5c

I have these in my lab and they print just fine from all sorts of Linuxes and Unixes. What is not available for the GX3xxxN and GX5xxxN are linux tools. Still, printing is not an issue whatsoever. Keep calling tech support, though, that way we might be able to justify development of support even for the windows only printers (USB only

I wish customers could give you the whole story the first time they call. I found out that this issue only happens when the customer is receiving a fax from one vendor. They would receive multiple copies of the same page from this one vendor.There would be an intermittent disconnect of the handshake between the two faxes. I suggested they put a line conditioner on the fax line. They already have that. They have an older Savin 4035spf that the faxes do receive from this one vendor. I also
