This Week in the Copier Industry Fifteen Years Ago

I've got a customer with a Ricoh 350 equipped with fax. They can do something I've never seen. In fact, I told them it couldn't be done till they showed me they could. If they attempt to transmit a fax which errors out, they get an error report printed. Then they are able to go back into the control panel and RETRASMIT the fax without re-scanning. I've always understood that this could not be done. You'd have to re-scan. I can't duplicate this on a 1045. Does anyone have more information

Does anyone have any dirt on the new Xerox 7655/7665? They are extremely competitively priced, and look to have the same engine specs as the 240/250, but with a Xerox controller targeted at the office market.

We were part of Ricoh's trial on these and put 4 of them out on customer sites for a few months. Overall the feedback was good. Print/copy quality was what you would expect from an inkjet. It was OK. We did not have any service issues except for clogged print heads. The process to clean the heads is intended to be a customer responsibility. There will need to be some training to get the customers use to doing this on a regular basis. Surprisingly the few issues we did have were media related

Unless I'm missing something, this solution does not work. After the transmission fails and error report is printed, the Change/Stop soft key is no longer available. Even before the fax has completely errored out - that is before it tried three times - I don no see a retransmitt ability. ???????

The Ricoh Solutions Group ought to be able to help you. They have a number of online demos at http://www.tscweb.net/sdg/demosricohdealer.html . The main Ricoh web site has solutions "Quick Tours" at http://www.ricoh-usa.com/produ...utions/qtgallery.asp . 1-2 minute videos instead of PowerPoints. That format might be more attention-getting. Have fun!

either. At least it is not mentioned in the SM and neither is 7810. Symptoms are: a user cant log in to the machine because it is asking for an administrators password. I cant get into user tools for the same reason. I called Ricoh and they insist that 7810 is a valid SP on this model. I dont think so. I hope I dont have to clear the memory 'cause that just f's up the counters and other settings.

WE have a customer that inherited a lanier 5020 that we are servicing. Does anyone know if this will take a Savin 9920dp pcu (#9605 type 250)?

I attended a Monster Mayhem a couple of weeks back and the Ricoh DSR mentioned something about a slowdown when 2-3 hole punching is used. She said that it slows the system down to 110ppm. Is anyone aware of this reduction in speed? If so, has there been a fix ie; firmware? Thanks, John

Has anyone had any negative feedback from customers about front delivery stacking with anything larger than 24" long? My construction company people typically print lots of 30" x 42" and/or 36" x 48"...all would prefer to send those copies out to the front, and stack them.
