The Week in Copiers 15 Years Ago The Second Week in October 2010

I have no clue as to how 2020 will end revenue wise. The year has proven to be full of challenges for all of us.  What I do know is that I will not give up, or give in to negative thoughts.  The world is what we make of it an if we are too succeed then WE need to make things happen every day.

I’ll play devils advocate here. Ricoh printers are already available online from many places. If Ricoh ever wants to get significant market share in printers they will have to open distribution. The RFG dealer network will not get the market share needed. But in the long run I think this will help us. How you ask???? The current Ricoh printer line is very strong. Superior to other products in many places. But we are still “selling printers”. To us that typically means long sales cycle for

Printer sales are a component in our strategy of controlling our market. The payoff may not be a high profit margin immediately, but there are many other good reasons for placing a printer. We sell printers 1) for the future toner sales and 2) more importantly, to position ourselves as the client's supplier of ALL their office equipment. If it's a new client, it helps us get in their door and build our relationship with them for future equipment sales. If it's a current client, it helps us

My rule #1 when I was selling copiers: I started by Asking the Right Questions AND Completing a Document Management Questionnaire. The copier and MFP has a competitive advantage over other devices, however, technology itself does not sell as effectively as a solution. I keep the discussion focused on the solution of electronic filing, its quantifiable benefits, and how the customer could use it in their office environment. By focusing on a user’s problem and solution I found it be much simpler

what Ricoh did and how it stacked up in the marketplace, and they were not prepared to take what they saw as a risk. The Ricoh name needs to be made far more visible - at least over here - and moves like this can only help that goal. The bottom line is of course that we try to sell solutions rather than printers, and that has got to remain the focus of our work. It will become a little easier if customers know the product line - and know they can trust and respect it.

Well, it was nice for a few months anyway. Its not holding up.

Ricoh had us turn up the fuser temp ... it was marginally better for a week, then it got the the point that the toner was not even bonding to standard 20lb bond paper! Ricoh sent us a nice new fuser kit, still no good. Has anybody else had a problem

Re: CL400dn

not bonding to 20 lb stock? If youre not a tech, you need one. This one is going to be too obvious. I see you got a new fuser unit. You're using Ricoh supplies? are the symptoms consistant? That is, happening all the time? If not it could be damp paper. Using damp paper means the heat of the fuser is used to dry out the paper instead of melting the toner. As I said this has to be something obvious.

Re: CL400dn

The drum seems fine, the image transfers fine, it wouldn't seem to be a pre-fusing image problem, unless it was a bad batch of toner. Corporate is taking over, I'll inform you of the results. Yes, it is OEM toner. A trained tech is working on it and has been in contact continuously with Ricoh on this.

I agree with all the tips, I believe in never sit back and wait for deals to fall into your lap!! I feel that without excellent product knowledge you are wasting your time, speaking to the correct person and asking him/her the questions that will determine their specific needs. A lot of reps "drop boxes", those days are long gone, solution selling is the key to success. I agree with one statement, sell the first device at almost cost, build a relationship and give GREAT service, believe me

Re: Shrinking During Scanning -Ricoh 2035

As far as the shrinking, that is usually an application problem. Windows image viewer and Adobe Acrobat both shrink apges by default. Make sure your application is set to print the image at 100%. You can usually tell if something is at 100% because it will run off the right side of the page. Remember that the SCAN is 8.5x11 but the PRINTABLE AREA is a bit smaller due to page margins, etc.

Aficio AP3800c laser optics housing labels location??

Help! I have an AP3800c that I screwed up and did a memory clear on it. Now I have to reprogram sp2-109-2 & 3 and sp2994-1 thru 4 Problem is, I can't find the stickers on the laser optics housing with the values I need. I've pulled the output tray and I can see the top and most of the sides but I can not find the stickers like are described in the manual. This is my first Ricoh, I normally do HP so please go easy on me I am praying that I'm missing the obvious somehow and that I won't have to

You only need to post in one Forum. The 20mb spool file you see, that is at the customer's site with their file? If you make your own file around the same size, does it print as slow? I have seen 1 inch x 1 inch .jpg's turn out to be 11x17 files squeezed down fit where the customer wants it in powerpoint. If it is just one document, you can try eliminating some graphics to see if a particular one is causing a problem. Print half the file, if the print speed is half of what it was before, print

The 2 machines are identical except for speed and neither comes standard with a print controller. The reason for the 2 different machines is purely marketing. the 3260 is targeted at B/C market and the 5560 is for production color. If you look at the brochures you will notice the 3260 brochure is set-up like the other 32XX boxes and does not mention the fiery. But the 5560 Brochure looks like the 6513 brochure and only mentions the fiery. In reality either controller will work in either machine.

The Week in Copiers Fifteen Years Ago This Week In 2005, the Second Week of August

Lately it's been a little bit of a struggle to get focused for prospecting.  After 5 months the wear and tear of COVID19 is rearing it's ugly head.  It's days like these when I need to press the reset button and think about what sales would be like if I was not prospecting.  That's not a pretty world for me and I need to self motivate. One of my favorite ways to self motivate is to schedule time for happy up beat tunes. I'll be doing that as soon as I finish this blog.

the 350 and the 1045 had a problem with the drum end seals, they would flatten out and you would dust at the ends. change those seals with the drum and you will see a much cleaner machine.also if the waste toner collects to long it will spill out mainly on the rear side which can also look like bad seals. the 1045 dev roller on op side will build up a coating, ricoh modified the roller but same results. remove roller andscotch brite it clean,making sure it is clean before reinstalling, this

Re: 240W's dropping SP Roll Feeder Setting

Guest ·
and whatever else you have the machine configured for. We had this happen about 3 or 4 times on this one machine, the question is why is it happening? Ricoh's only answer was....... "Response (Diego Lavin) - 05/31/2005 03:32 PM There is a cutter error taking place that causes this to take place. The User Tool is strictly for this issue." I can only guess that the manual cutter, the one you use when loading a roll, wasn't returned to the home position on either side of the drawer.

Do you not sell the JP8500? Using U.S. Communities pricing, you could sell the JP8500 and the TCII 2-color system for less than the Riso RP3700. Your only other option is to get real cheap on the per copy cost of your copier to minimize the cost difference.

I want to use combine feature to copy on something in the bypass but whenever we select combine the bypass "grays out". Is there a way to make the bypass an available paper source for combine feature?

I've been in copier biz since 1985 have seen LOTS of copiers come and go, some terrible (somebody mentioned the Ricoh 5560 the other day) some great (1022/1027,1015,2018,/551/700/1060/1075/2060/2075). ALL the new equipment is a billion times better than the equipment in the old days. A BILLION. Really , the Ricoh equipment line is amazing. That having been said, the series you speak of, with the cleaning assembly above the drum, is not a real clean running machine. Drums should go close to

Re: CL7000 Question

The IS100, IS200, and IS300e can be connected to the any of the Ricoh printers. The 300e is the usual choice for the CL7XXX because it can do 11X17 but any of them will work.

Any Canon folks out there? Is the IR6000 still a new product or is it discontinued? What about service and selling price for a school type account? Thanks for any help. John

Re: DWG errors

In addition to printing DWG's from AutoCAD, native DWG files are supported as part of a job set using Plotclient WIN. A full seat of AutoCAD installed on the Plotbase Server is required to support the Plotclient WIN workflow. As Bandit41076 points out, you can also get more info by right clicking on the job in the history line. Make sure your AutoCAD version that's loaded on the Server is as least as recent as the DWG file creation version.

The issues were Window components and firewall. The IT person did not want to change these settings. When changed, everything worked great. These are the REAL LIFE situations that we service reps encounter every time we need to connect one of our products. Sales sells it, and the buyer, buys it. Nether know how to connect it, or what’s involved.

Canon IR C3220...just kidding. I have found the 2238 series to be very good. Even better copy quality from the glass than the Canon.

Re: Warranty on Ricoh copier parts

Darren .... ·
I doubt it directly from Ricoh. Most Hard Drive manufacturers cover the hard drive anywhere from 1 to 3 years. You have to go directly to them for that. I did years ago when a hard drive failed on an AF450. It depends on the manufacture and if it was originally purchased by Ricoh and shipped to Singapore or Taiwan, this might have an impact on whether the Mfg will ship a warranty replacement to a different country.

Re: Lease rate check

I would be curious to see what your rates are when you visit with GE. Our owner adds points to our rates from GE and our rate for a $10K-75K deal is .0306. Try selling the difference in lease price on a 50K deal when your competitor is using a .0274 rate.

more "Damaged in Shipping" charges, no more "We didn't get the Cancelation Letter in time" etc. You will also gain easy early upgrades and increased profit opportunities at the back end. My company pays salesreps extra to use Clune because they save so much time and money from not having to deal with "the other" leasing companies as much. I have no relationship with this company except that of being one of their customers but I believe in them so much that I would be willing to field any calls

I have been able to print on Mylar tabs from drawer 4 or 5 only with the tab sheet holder. Test the brand of mylar you are using to make sure its in spec and will work. I would make sure the Micropress is beefed up to the max to drive 4 and contact EFI directly to have a TR expert come in for the install (the times I've done micropress/4105 there is always soething that comes up in the 12th hour and they need to have someone from Phoenix support working with your guys or their expert to get it

Monthly volume????

Anders And ·
Is there anybody out there who can explain the the difference between: Average copy volume Max. copy volume Duty cycle for Ricoh products. Duty for 3228 is 200K/month. Unit lift is 3.000K Does that mean that you can run 200K pr. month for 15 month? I dont think so... And then there is color ratio!

Is anyone having problems with the 350/1035/2035 series?

We want to know if anyone is experiencing the same problems we have been for years with the 350/450; 1035/1045 & 2035/2045 series. Our techs say these machines are horrible with dusting (i.e. toner everywhere), drums not lasting for anywhere close to full life,, develpoer not lasting anywhere close to full life, and the machines not going reliably from PM to PM. An old service guy from Ricoh (who is no longer there) told us that these machines do have a problem. But Ricoh's offical answer is

Investigators in the western city of Kobe have concluded that the fire in January was caused by a spark generated when the urine soaked the machine's electrical printing mechanism. The fire damaged the kitchen and living room before it was put out by the house's owner, who

Help w/UNIX

I have a customer using HP Unix, they want to connect a 2022SP. The purpose is to move the three part forms from the Dot matrix printer to the Aficio 2022. I was asked if we can add a staple to stapler to our device. Can we? Is there a way to make this work that when the three forms print, they can then be atapled. Do we need to use BrightQ? Thanx Art
