This Week in the Copier/Office Equipment Industry 10 Years Ago Second Week of September 2004

This week in 2004.  Hurricane Ivan, still at Category Five strength, continues to travel northward, causing damage throughout the western Caribbean. As of 23:00 local time (0300 UTC September 13), it is located about 285 km (175 miles) southeast of the western tip of Cuba, and it is predicted that the eye of Ivan will pass over that part of the island Monday afternoon or evening.

          We have talked about this before, this is an example of a chargeable call, if your customer updates to SP2 after you have SR set up and running and then they have problems with SR. The following are from Ricoh FAQs: "..Windows XP SP2 closes many ports

          With all the equipment that Ricoh has been buying from Samsung, wouldn't it be easier if Ricoh just bought them?  Maybe that is in the works also.

          I'm not certain Samsung couldn't buy Ricoh. They are huge...office equipment is a very small part of what they do.

          Make sure you have a valid IP address in the scanner server setting, under Scanner in UP mode. Happens to all Ricoh equipment if it can't find the server. Switch ip adress off if you're not using the feature.

          Basic feature for feature comparable models ... Ricoh seems to be keeping their own control panel to match their product family ... other than that, I believe they are the same. Ricoh 1160L = Samsung SF-555P Ricoh 1170L = Samsung SF-565P Ricoh 2210L

          Just for whatever it is worth, I was told yesterday that the SMB scanning feature will NOT work with Win2003 server as the backbone. This is a fix that Ricoh is supposed to be working on. I don't know why this is, however, my guess is that it has

          The question "Is Virtual Copier the same as Desktop Binder?" comes up quite often. Here is what one of our Ricoh dealers has to say" "If you asked an IT person if VC and DesktopBinder technically do the same thing, they might say yes. That's like saying

          Is it possible to buy spareparts for rebuilding the fusing unit? A paperjam can ruin a brand new (expensive) unit. As far as I know Ricoh does not supply seperate parts for these units. ???

Ricoh has added another model to the "fuser-eater" line. Based on the DSc332 and 338, this is the DSc328.It is a 28/20 machine. Ricoh doesn have it on its site but it is on Gest/Savin and Lanier. I found it by way of a service bulletin (B147/149/b190-10)

          I would have to concur. I know Ricoh specs the 220/270 and the 1022/1027 as being able to feed envelopes from the second drawer. However, I know from experience that these don't work well either. Star1

          Here is the launch letter I received.  From the SU Pricing, they are just going to add it aboe the 2232C in the list.  It uses the same accessories as the 2232C & 2238C.
