Ricoh 1060 versus Canon 5000 i

I have some good info , but am wondering if anyone out there, perhaps someone that sells both, could compare and contrast the differences between these two models, besides the obvious speed difference? I am getting killed on price, some of which is to be expected with the speed and capacity differences, but am looking for some good meat I can use to put into a side by side comparison. Also, while I know the Canon has a 5.1 GIG hard drive standard, the Canon dealer is telling the client that

Ricoh vs Ricoh

Does anyone know if there is any written or unwritten rule about how two competing Ricoh companies are supposed to compete against each other? I was in a deal and worked it for 3 weeks and beat out Canon, but then Ricoh direct got involved and not only beat my price, but destroyed it and now if I chooose to get it, if I can even get there, there is no money to be made. THANKS

Re: Ricoh vs Ricoh

There is a code of ethics between Ikon, Savin, Gestetner, Ricoh US and I believe Dealers. We have been told, to DMAP Register every account during the sales cycle. This way, the others have to back off. I know this is not alot of info, but I am sure one of us has to have something in writing.

Re: Ricoh vs Ricoh

Thanks for the info. That is just it. I have them registered DMAP already. Is it possible that the other Ricoh dealer thinks they can get to that price and has not checked to see if they can get them registered, or do they have access to some incredible pricing that I cannot get??? I mean their pricing is right at DMAP cost. It is ridiculous

It all depends on the financial strength and the volume of boxes moved that will determine what the dealer buys at. I have had to be very creative on some sales to make a few dollars and push the envelope of what Ricoh offers and how it is done, I will not reveal them on this site, because one of my competitors is a member on this site (I can't give all my secrets away).

It's really something when you can develop that kind of relationship by communicating in a forum.  There's been many times that Monte helped me get a deal because of his knowledge and I'm sure I've helped him out a few time also.  But, that's what the Print4Pay Hotel forums is all about.

Rioch Press Release

by Xerox. "We are managing to move forward in a very difficult environment," says Tatsuo Hirakawa, Ricoh's deputy president. "Despite the generally gloomy global economic outlook, especially in the U.S., we still believe we can achieve record sales and earnings this year," he says, while declining to make a specific prediction. Consensus estimates call for the company to earn $3.83 per share for the 12 months ending next March, an increase of 9%, and $4.04 per share the following year. "Ricoh

From: ricohaficio Sent: 10/31/2002 4:35 PM Our 6513 with the e-820 can do the occasional match print (the customer high quality with matching colors) that needs to go to press. The match print must do exactly that (match) what comes off of the four color (SWOP) press. I have sold 4506 's and 6513's to do this for some of my P4P accounts. The 4506 and 6513 with fierys will fair very well. The Xerox solution is not a match print maker, if it was they would call it that. It will suffice like ours

Re: Page Numbering and Stamping

From: Ted Sent: 11/22/2002 6:28 AM I'm sure it would not have been difficult for Ricoh to put the same features, i.e. all the user stamp functions and booklet making mode on the 3800CMF. However, they still need a reason for us to sell the B (&W) 35cpm machines. Once they get the cost of the black toner cost down, the 35cpm, in my opinion, will become obsolete. You can easily cost justify the 3800CMF vs the AF1035 with all the extra you get. Just the cost of the Black is too high right now.
