"The American Soldier" is named as Time magazine's "Person of the Year". The periodical's editors chose the anonymous soldier to represent the 1.4 million men and women serving in the United States Armed Forces.

Sources told me the 50ppm color laser printer is Ricoh's OEM product. I was not aware of a 50ppm copier to be released by Ricoh. I was aware of the 32ppm copier printer (toshiba OEM).We'll have to do some more checking!

We have always been charged back From Ricoh's perspective, why wouldn't everyone be signed up DMAP6 if there was no consequence to not reaching the commitment.

Reply by Darren ....
It was my understanding that the chargeback was always a feature of DMAP but not usually done... unless that was up to the discretion of the DSM, or it has changed since I was with a Ricoh dealer.
