This Week in the Copier/Office Equipment Industry 10 Years Ago (3rd Week of January 2004)

I checked around for a few events and couldn't find much from 2004.
 
Wish Ricoh would have had a Super Bowl Contest this year, well maybe not since the Super Bowl will be in NY and out in the cold.  I guess I'm kinda hoping for the mother of all snow storms to hit on or around the 2nd of February.

Yes, Yes, and...Yes. I think it is a problem with the postscript driver and the print controller. We installed a 2090 a month ago with a SR90 booklet maker, and we couldn't get it to fully work the customer's until we put the Fiery controller on it. ...

Has anyone seen this equipment or more importantly the output first hand? I am wondering if it is something that can compete with the other high end production color units like the CLC 5100 and Xerox 6060.

Image quality on the 8050 is close to the Canon 5100, when last I saw it at Graph Expo. The question I always raise is Konica's lack of experience building their own color units. Attached is a recently released list of approved paper stocks for the 8050.
