Art, I worked with Biscom to take their Android App (already Developed) and loaded the apk file on a Samsung. I was able to send receive a fax, I was the first one in the world to do this,. I then worked with the Biscom Developers to tweak this app so it understood what a Scanner Printer was and how to use them. They were able in 30 days to have a working Biscom Fax App, and another 60 days to have their SFT (Secure File Transfer). I am working on other Apps now because Apps (killer Apps) are

yeah, 501 replaces the 45ppm the 601 replaces the 52ppm A4, can't remember those models numbers right now. From prelim pics, seems the book is out if the 60ppm A4 device is actually a Ricoh OEM. Not sure, but the DF looks completely different from any other Ricoh DF

The problem with the 5200 series was always the cost per page for the cartridges. We sold very few of them for that reason alone. That machine would have been a real winner if the consumables had let the dealer put it under a service plan at a reasonable CPP. Perfect machine for medical but just too expensive for the cartridge.

So what would you quote for service on this machine? Someone is quoting $100.00 per quarter including 2000 Sq ft and toner included. Something does not sound right.

Still waiting on pricing here, however we were around $442 for 6K SQFT for an annual contract. Sounds pretty cheap to me also

Good move! Do the right thing. A competitor of ours is now out of business for doing stuff like that. They would leave the line blank and then go back to the office and write 63 months. Have seen deals where they went and upgraded a lease that was a year old for a new 63 month term at 1,000.00 a month and the customer signed it and never got any new equipment and was stuck with two leases.

So, two days after signing up and seeing many "leads", I received an email that offered the Premium Service for $5.00 per month. I signed up! I had to sort through 455 leads, many outside of my area, thus I just deleted them. I got the list down to 63 or so, most were for business intelligence, a few for electronic equipment. BTW, there is no listing for copiers. I did contact four contacts who were looking for business intelligence and IT services. Have not hear back from anyone. What I did
