Latest word that I got yesterday is that we will have a graphics color machine in the next quarter. This is a Branded Toshibamachine. I believe that Ricoh is going to call it the Aficio Color 3131 and that it is the Toshiba e-STUDIO310C Here's The Link

I understand from Ricoh that this was a mistake on the brochure and that it will not do 8.5 x 14. Has anyone actually seen this in action yet?

I just got back from the NYC portal launch of this and it does staple legal but it will not fold it. It does however have a hole punch. Canon has the same booklet finisher but does not have hole punch capabilities.

Saw the new 31 ppm color at the On Demand show. It is a relabeled Toshiba, not the 310, but a new model that Toshibahas yet to release. However it will be very similar to the 310, with some problems fixed. It's hard to tell much about color output with

Could you clarify you statement? Do you mean that XP is not a supported OS for the PC-Cillin program, or XP is not a supported OS for the Ricoh stuff?

I don't think I would trust sales skills training to Ricoh. What they do as far as competitive info is pretty good but very spotty as far as its coverage. They do offer some "dated" stuff with every launch package but it might take a couple months afte
