Re: All Ricoh A4 devices = no stapler
Hi Art, We once developed this for the IDEAL 8520 stapler but we can do that for every stapler of course.

That's correct, it was discontinued in lieu of the new MP 501SP & 601SP

Re: All Ricoh A4 devices = no stapler
If it helps, Canon A4 staplers are usually around $900 whole sale.

Re: All Ricoh A4 devices = no stapler
The 501/601 are based on a Kyocera MFP without a stapler, so Ricoh didn't have much of a choice on that one. Agreed that its a disadvantage against other A4s, so with Ricoh you will either have to sell the C401 with a finisher or an A3 MFP for the foreseeable future.

Re: All Ricoh A4 devices = no stapler
$650 on a B&W A4, $615 on a color A4. Ricoh is missing the boat one this one...

Re: Kyocera finally put's out a low volume A4 Color
Looking for feedback on this. Has anyone sold these are had a chance to put hands on it and get an opinion. What type of service rates would you charge for toner inclusive service agreement on this?

Re: Kyocera finally put's out a low volume A4 Color
Yes I have sold a couple of these. For the price these are fantastic. My service manager is impressed which is hard to do. Dual side scanning is a definite selling point. The cost per page is going to be higher of course. I would say in the .015 black and white and .11 color to be safe (depending on your market of course). Not as good as say the 6535 per say but the machine is less than half the cost. If the run more than a couple thousand a month I would move them up to the 6535cidn. Let me...

Re: Sometimes I just don't understand.......
We don't have a rule like that but I've pretty much self imposed my own similar rule. I wind up putting in just as much time and effort on those little machines as a $10,000 A3.

Re: A4 Mono Printer w/Finisher Stapler
Lexmark does as well but I have to go back and think which printer does it. I actually think they have a few.

Re: A4 Mono Printer w/Finisher Stapler
I don't know of any Lexmark printers that staple, A4 or otherwise...only MFD's

Re: A4 Mono Printer w/Finisher Stapler
I’ll go through my book in a little bit. I’m almost positive there are some that do. Could be wrong but I feel like we were quite impressed with that feature when we first became a dealer.

Re: A4 Mono Printer w/Finisher Stapler
Since you are in the Industry Discussion Romm I assume that you are not asking about Ricoh. You also say printers rather than MFD's. I googles "printers that staple" and nothing came up but MFD's
Reply
Re: A4 Mono Printer w/Finisher Stapler
Old Glory, yup you are correct, was not asking about Ricoh. Was curious if there was any printer based products that staple. I sure there might be a couple. I'm not finding any either. Quoting 8400N. Thank you for the reply, it's appreciated

Re: Is the time right for MFP Manufacturers to only offer...
Not just color. We could see a big consolidation of speed bands too. If certain manufacturers can make low cost 40 and 50ppm engines that retail for under $4,000 do we really need to have 25ppm engines that retail for over $5,000?
Reply
Re: Is the time right for MFP Manufacturers to only offer...
If they offer them for the price of black & white units, yes. If they try to have the same price point as current color systems, they would lose out on price to any manufacturers that continue to make b/w only systems. Additionally, they would have to have a multi-tier billing system for color so as to not scare off people that have intentionally stayed away from color. The industry billing systems (e-Automate, OMD) would need to make that easy to manage & bill as well.
Reply
Re: Is the time right for MFP Manufacturers to only offer...
Agreed that the cost of color would have to be the same as the current black systems. I for one would like to only offer color, I think it would be better for the industry. I also believe that the color machines don't cost that much more to make the black systems. I'd bet that the margins are the 20-25-30 ppm nlack systems are huge from the manufacturing side.

Re: Are A4 MFPs an Environmental hazard?
I'm in agreement about he value at the end of lease for A4's. It was a topic of discussion that I had with two premier wholesalers. It's often heard "that one mans junk is another mans treasure." This can be true with a savvy buyer as long as they can get 3 year old A4's or less for a song and a dance. These would be perfect devices to put back in the field under a DaaS plan, even if it's only for a year or two. That model is probably the only potential I see for the off lease A4 devices.
Reply
Re: Are A4 MFPs an Environmental hazard?
The ability to purchase a used A4 copier for like $25.00 to $50.00 each is not the full story. Depending on where the meter read is you might have to spend an additional $350.00 on consumables to get a 50 cpm black only desktop Lexmark working and up to $1,400.00 to a Lexmark 40 cpm colour 4 ready to go.

Re: A4's Replacing A3 MFPs
For me, it would be roughly 15%, verticals would be healthcare and law. When an A4 does take the place of an A3, do customers have concerns about the higher CPC? When I see that there are zero to a small number of 11x17 pages printed. CPC not that big of a deal, and I don't do bids so I cant comment on that. @Monte @Jason H @Old Glory @jredmon @John

Re: A4's Replacing A3 MFPs
Thanks Art, yeah, I wouldn't think the CPC change would be that big of a deal understanding the customer is probably saving $ on hardware costs by going with an A4 vs. A3.
Reply
Re: A4's Replacing A3 MFPs
From what I seen in the past and what I showed the customer was that many times they could almost double their speed but keeping their price about the same. I sold a ton of Lexmarks and Samsung A4 devices. And yes I would live to see some heavy duty A4s to go into schools, municipalities, and larger companies.
Reply
Re: A4's Replacing A3 MFPs
How would you define "Heavy duty A4's"? There is a reason why Ricoh has both the MP 6055 and the MP 6503. Placing an A4 vs. an MP 6055 can be a big enough stretch depending on desired accessories but it will be awhile before I would ever consider placing an A4 where I feel an MP 6503 is required.
Reply
Re: A4's Replacing A3 MFPs
I sell a lot of A4 into my medical accounts and small business accounts. It really comes down to page volume and how the machine is to be used. I have yet to see an A4 that is built tough, has a low CPC, has a good document feeder, is user friendly and can handle 20,000 pages per month. Not to mention the lack of stapling and tray shift finishing.
Reply
Re: A4's Replacing A3 MFPs
Thanks guys. General consensus seems that there is some customer demand (and revenue opportunities) for stronger, higher-end A4's that MFRs need to address.
