Real Copier Sales

I wanted to comment on an article that I picked up in the Channel Pro rag from April of 2012. Yeah, it's been a few months but I keep my reading material in various reading sites at the homestead.

I have a customer that is demoing the Ricoh 8200DN for printing invoices. Usually the invoices are 6 pages duplex pulling one page from all 3 drawers. When it is 6 pages duplex everyting is fine, but when there is no duplex page 5 print where page 6 would have been. This is happening every time.

Sunday, August 3, 2008 Sharp Imaging "Giving Customer What They Need" Finally...., and Kudos to Sharp Imaging!!
