Funny Story from Jason R
For all of you newbies......, when was the last time you had a copier delivered to a customers office to do a demonstration of how the copier can help their business improve their paper intensive workflow?

Competing against the Xerox WorkCentre 7335C?

Thanks for the link Art. The pricing listed in this post is SIGNIFICANTLY below cost on all the products listed above (C900, Finisher, PerfectBinder, RingBinder, etc). If this pricing post scares the competitors to Ricoh and helps drive down costs on competitive units for the p4p community ... then great. Realistically, no one will ever see that pricing on the street for a Ricoh c900. Why would Ricoh price themselves closer to the Xerox 700 or KM 6500 when on the productivity side the c900 is 2

I quess it would be more in tune to why you should pay more for the Ricoh devices. It just seems everyone is caught up in price and not caring about support. I'm telling the Ricoh story and new accounts have been a bear. I guess a general overview of how these machines work with network scanning, and network faxing would be a great place to start, and what deficiencies Kyocera has related to network scanning and faxing.

Xerox Copes With Recession; Layoffs Possible
Art Post (Guest) ·
(Rochester, N.Y.) – In October Xerox posted a profitable third quarter but announced 3,000 job cuts in anticipation of the economy. President Ursula Burns calls this a pretty tough time for Xerox - -but not a disastrous time. Xerox was one of the first companies to recognize the slumping economy and take steps to deal with it. The company has offered separation packages seeking to trim roughly 5.2 percent of its employees worldwide. If not enough people step forward to reach that goal, some

No word yet from my DSM. Initially this was just for IKON Canon during the Ricoh acquisition but my DSM mentioned he heard rumor it was opening to the dealer channel. If I get more info I will pass along. Ricoh is restructuring DSM's in California.

We had the jan-March Ricoh promo emailed to us today, and I saw nothing in reference to high volume, as a matter of fact, all I saw was "@ remote Flip their base", you get a free @ remote if @ remote sees more than 25 devices. Boring.........well fo rme at least. The promo for the RF for 2470 was renewed and the rebates for wide format trade in were renewed. Other than that, nothing earth shattering. I am getting my butt kicked by Kyocera Devices, lower than my base from three years of service

Re: mpc2500
This is what the footnotes say: Fiery options are compatible only with MP C2500EFI/MP C3000EFI models. This is my take...You can add the Fiery but you will have paid for two controllers since the units come with the Ricoh controller standard and you lose the ability to add SpotOn, Auto Trapping, EFI Hot Folders, etc.
