Chops, do you have anything in writing that shows that the 240W roll feeder will work with the W3601? The dealership I work for is wants me to provide proof! Art

I also received this in an email about the roll feeder: We did an install of a 3601 a few years ago at one of his customers, and plopped it right on top of the old 240 roll feeder that they had...with no trouble at all. Hope this is all you'll need to convince "the man" !

and this: As far as "proof" that it will work...... I have been a Ricoh WF dealer for 15 years. I have installed the 2400, 3600 and the 3601 on top of 240 roll feeders. They all work. The connectors are exactly the same. The printer does not "know" what roll feed is underneath it.

Thanx to everyone that helped with this. It's really going to help out a client that needs to get a pre-owned MP3601SP and will get to keep his dual roll feeder with the paper tray.

Re: Plotbase Dilemma Question
Why are they upgrading the PC???? Simply because Microsoft isn't supporting???? If so, my advice would be not to change a thing. The PC should be dedicated to the plotter and as such should not be doing anything out on the interwebs that would invite a virus in. Big can of worms to open on a machine that is that old especially with the lack of support from the defunct manufacturer of the Ratio controller. Opportunity to upgrade to a modern machine with internal controller.

This Week in the Copier/Office Equipment Industry 10 Years Ago The Third Week of March 2006
It was Monday , under the sign of Pisces . The US president was George W. Bush (Republican). In that special week of March people in US were listening to So Sick by Ne-Yo . In UK It's Chico Time by Chico was in the top 5 hits. Inside Man , directed by Spike Lee , was one of the most viewed movies released in 2006 while Micah by Laurell K. Hamilton was one of the best selling books. But much more happened that day: find out below.. March 2006 Re: 2051 duplex copy from bypass? 3/17/06 4:06 PM...

This Week in the Copier/Office Equipment Industry 10 Years Ago The First Week of October 2006
While I was scrolling down on this weeks threads from ten years ago, I saw the threads for the Aficio MPC2500, MP C3000, MPC3500, and MP C4500. Hard to believe that these systems are ten years old now Another old but goodie was the introduction of the variable print head for the Seri Model 25. The variable print head was actually an HP print head/cartridge that was located in the Seri Model 25. Never sold the VPPH model, however I did sell a few of the Seri Model 25, in fact I just sold a...

This Week in the Copier Industry 10 Years Ago (First Week of October 2007)
Interesting thread from ten years ago is the thread about Padded Lease Rates! Ethical or Unethical. Personally. I've never been a fan of this, and I also think it's theft by deception. Call it what you want, I also believe there should be some type of regulation especially when a "price" is published and or agreed to and then the lease rate is padded and the price is not what was stated. Enjoy these threads!! Topic Weekend Notes from the Copier Industry for 9/30/07 10/1/077:46 PM next 12...

This Copier Changed My Sales Life 15 Years Ago this Week!
It's late on Friday night, and for most, their work is over for the week. For me, I need to do updates, and frankly, I've been lagging in my blogging lately. It's not because I don't want to write; it's mainly because nothing has triggered me to write. Nothing unusual in sales, nothing unusual in the field, and I've had my nose to the grindstone looking to hit numbers. Until tonight, when I needed to post my series, "This Week in the Copier Industry 15 Years Ago this Week." The nice thing...

Those were good times indeed. Big commissions and big points on the Ricoh credit card to boot. Very short lived though. I was doing one or two wide formats a month in addition to all of the mid-volume color machines that customers were buying. By 2008 it was over and the wide format market has never recovered. In the past 12 months I've sold 4 wide formats and only one was a brand new unit.

Re: This Copier Changed My Sales Life 15 Years Ago this Week!
I agree with you, by 2008 the big Aficio points and the big commissions were gone. All of the other manufacturers caught up with the technology. In addition Ricoh rested on their laurels with the 240W and waited way to long to bring an upgrade to the market place. I average about 1.5 new wide formats per month, GP is significantly down, but it's now a decent revenue generator. The Ricoh MP W6700SP is now three years old and needs a refresh. What does Ricoh have in the works?

Hopefully whatever they replace the 6700 with is another compact machine that can be carried up a flight of stairs like the old 240 was.
