There's an interesting thread below titled A4 Device Poll. It's a short thread and I disable the poll site years ago. However, from reading the thread it was about ten years ago that A4 devices were starting to talk hold. What I can't believe is that the major A3 manufacturers have continued to lower prices on the A3 boxes and move very slowly with offering full functionality for A4 devices. It's been ten years! Enjoy the threads from ten years ago this week. Topic Weekend Copier Notes from...

Ten years ago Ricoh released the first GBC stream puncher in the industry, it was interesting to say the least. Many of us poked fun at the chads that were scattered within the first GBC stream punch units.  We actually had to dispatch...

Really, has it been only ten years since our MFP's incorporated color scanning? Seems like we've had it forever. One of the threads from this post tells about the Ricoh MP4000 which came with standard color scanning. For me 2008 marks the start of the Great Recession here in the US. Most of my business at that time was in the AEC market. Thinking back, I lost almost 40% of my accounts to the Great Recession, some just closed up shop, while others went out of business. Far as I'm concerned I...

Ok, I get it, seems like 15 years ago there were some active weeks and maybe a few slower weeks with threads. What I did see is a thread from Monte! Which is really cool, Monte and I speak from time to time and we've developed a relationship over the years. 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,...

This Week in Copiers Fifteen Years Ago Second Week of February 2008 With all of the recent news about China with the recent the recent shooting of the SPY balloon and the downing of two "UFOs" (suspected from China), will this alert MFP buyers to ask "where are your MFPs manufactured"? I remember in the eighties when many buyers wanted no part of copiers that were manufactured in Japan. Of course that all ended when Xerox partnered with Fuji and all copiers where manufactured in Japan.
