Automated Fax Reception
On a recent install of a Savin 9050 with fax option, the customer is not able to receive incoming automated telephone orders from Verizon via the fax option. Ricoh says this is an issue they are working on but have not come up with any solutions yet. The system they had before was the Savin 4035e, and the automated faxes came through fine. Any suggestions other than what Ricoh is telling us?

MP4000/5000-Rx fax problems
DRichard (Guest) ·
Somebody else must be seeing this...Our MP4000/5000 machines cannot recieve faxes properly when they are generated through IP servers. The line opens but the comm link takes forever and we recieve each page three times. We have set Fax SP1-104-003 bit2=1 per Ricoh Tech Support. Symptoms remained but only the last page came through. Monitor report shows error code 06-21 after each attempt. All incomming faxes from traditional sources work fine. I am being told Ricoh is aware of the problem

Re: usage management
Mr. Copy (Guest) ·
I sold Konica Minolta for 3 years and worked with Konica/Minolta products for 7. One of the major differences between Konica Minolta and Ricoh is administration and ease of use. It is true that Konica Minolta has this feature. The problem with it is that you can not make the quotas time sensitive. It can start to get confusing to the end user when they have to go back in and allow another 100 copies. Ricoh does not have this feature because the designers probably thought that it would

usage management
My prospect has told me that the Konica Minolta product they are looking at offers the capability to set specific copy quota's for users so that they may have unlimited b&w, but have 100 color copies per user for example. #1. Is anyone familiar with this feature on the Konica Minolta systems or other manufacturer's systems? #2. Assuming Ricoh products don't offer this, how would you handle this question? Thanks for any input!

Re: Print Management
My experience with Print Director has just been training. It is just PrintAudit product relabeled with Ricoh's name but I still prefer to get stuff from Ricoh if possible. I think by keeping everything Ricoh (when possible) helps keep everything Ricoh (when possible) if you know what I mean. If everything is from Ricoh, they are less likely to go non-Ricoh when the opportunity arises. I can also promote the idea of keeping everything Ricoh as long as I haven't done a bunch of 3rd party stuff

Re: usage management
If you ignore the cost recovery aspect of Ricoh's Print and Copy Vending Embedded Solution, it may work for you. I assume you would be able to set B&W values to 0 and set color values to 1 with a one hundred limit and get what you need. This is a new product so I haven't actually worked with it. In case my attachment didn't work, the brochure number is R2480.

Glue Binding Machines
With the new Ricoh 906ex series there is inline glue binding. It costs a fortune. Does anybody have any insight into standalone glue binding machines for high volume binding? I have a prospect who uses a standalone Xerox Docubind.

You will increase the speed with the scuzzi, i think dtb and twain is slowing the process down. I have placed one of these in a title company and used the network board and scanned to folder, customer was very happy and the speed was very good. Go with the network board option and mirror what the Xerox is doing.

Re: Default Username & Password
slim463 ·
Let me inform you of the DISASTER that this can create. The supervisor password should NEVER be accessible for the sales staff or the end-user. The reason for this is if the supervisor password EVER get accidentally changed, (Believe me, sales and customers say that) You CANNOT fix it. You must replace the MAIN board and / or replace the NVRAM which is a nightmare/ and very costly. Just beware of who knows of this specialty login. That is probably why this login has been held in such secrecy

You might think so, but we have at least twenty machines in various locations with exactly the same symptoms. We just yesterday brought one to the shop and reproduced the problem sending test faxes from our Blackberries. This isn't limited to the MP4000-5000 either, we are also getting reports from our field techs they are seeing it from MP2550 and MP2500 series also.

IS760 Scanning Options for speed.
I have an acct. that is testing one of our is760d scanners. Their requirements are all docs will be 400dpi uncompressed Tiff. they have given me some comparisons to a xerox workcenter 7655 they have. Ex. 400dpi 1 sided b/w 60page doc took 36 seconds on xerox. and took 1:36 on the Is760d using usb to pc running dtb with twain driver. Has anybody have or done a comparison of USB vs Ieee1394(firewire) vs SCSI vs Network. Also what about twain vs isa drivers and compatible apps. does the hardware
