My customer prints to their Savin 4018d from Wordperfect 10. For some reason, they cannot print from the bypass, it pulls from the default drawer eventhough the print driver and page setup are correct. I've tried RPCS and PCL6 drivers. Is this a limitation with Wordperfect? Is there a solution?

I have a customer who is scanning to PDF and when they open the document in Acrobat reader and attempt to print, all that comes out is a blank page. I had it working yesterday by unchecking the "print as image" box in the application print, but this morning they tried to print using 5.0, just a blank page. You can see the drawing in reader and in the print preview. I had it working yesterday! This issue is driving me nuts! They also updated their reader to 6.0 this morning and now the pages are

Art: Thank you for posting this article. Excellent information and logically reinforces one of the basic objectives of this site - sharing ideas & experiences among digital imaging professionals i.e. software-centric selling. Hardware-centric selling, while still very effective for many seasoned professional sales reps, is a declining selling strategy in our software focused market. Newer sales reps are finding it increasingly difficult to replicate the success of their more-experienced

Ricoh definitely has this unit on the launch pad but I think it will be early 2005 according to my sources. This will finally be the "ricoh" replacement product for the antique 6513 and it will be an OEM product, not a Toshiba (aka AF3131) knockoff.

There were also some changes in the fax capabilities in the e version. If I remember correctly it had to do with the fax forwarding (tsi routing)to different in-boxes etc. Basically, Ricoh launched the 2035/2045, and then made improvements to the 2022/2027 series so they had to go back and update the recently launched 35/45ppm devices.

We used to use a media called "Fabrika" Tee-shirt Transfer material, when we were carrying the Toshiba Chromotouch copier. However, it was a wax transfer machine, didnt use a fuser. And a fuser is the biggest obstacle in this application. I mean these things rip up bad when using anything that turns sticky.

Setting this machine up in the shop today. All went OK after I dicovered a reversed connector on the control panel. I got it that the time zone here is -5 hrs from GMT but the daylight saving time setting look like they want me to input the start and end days in hex. The defaults are: Copier SP5-307-003 Start "41000010h" -005 End "10560000h" In the first place, dont we all start DST on the same day? And in the second place 41000010 hex = 1090519056./ What the heck is that?

Thank you for participating in the P4P Forum. Which electronic paper management solutions are you offering your small to mid-sized customers? Is bundled solution (software/hardware) selling an important part of your sales presentation? Is the software you are selling helping you increase hardware sales and margins?

Do you mean receive a fax and then email? If so, I believe all of the new 20 series can do this. Art Go Mets! Maybe Next Year???

Try changing the DPI in the scan setting to 200, or in the print driver.

6.0 shoulnt be the problem but it sure is bulky, I uninstalled it! But a blank sheet is usually a memory problem, which, I know, you tried "print as image" and that didnt work, if the standard tcp/ip is in use, consider a print server with lotsa memory. PDFs are famous for "missing"images.

If I remember correctly, the 2035e offers scan to folder w/o Scan Router when upgraded with printing and scanning. This is more important with the 4035esp (scanning and printing included). This is was one of the first 40 series generation to come out and SMB scanning wasn't available at the time. Most new units are e's.

Ok, how about on the Savin 2408? There is no option to browse for a cover sheet location. Is there some other way to input this?

Ricoh will introduce a 40-45cppm B2C, supposedly by December 31, 2004. And then, in 1stQ 2005 a higher speed, presumably 55-60cppm B2C. These are completely seperate from the, soon to be released, replacements/upgrades for the Aficio 1060 & 1075.

you should read the paper weight specs on these printers and then instruct your customers that they will have to purchase new ones when they shred up. these fusers will not shred unless the wrong paper is being used

Ron: Have you heard if Ricoh is, indeed, working on a solution for the interposer compatability? Unfortunately I am closing a deal, right now, for a 2090 with the GBC...don't know how to proceed with regard to your experiences... Thank you, Dan
