We have published CPP's for both of these models. The SP 4510sf is anywhere from $.03-$.035, & the MP 401spf is $.0155-$.017. Based on that gap, the break-even is about 41,000 images. On a 36 month lease, that's a little more than 1,100 images per month, whereas on a 60 month lease it's not quite 700 images per month. Personally, I like the strategy behind having the two models priced differently. The printer manufacturers (specifically HP & Lexmark) have been doing this for years,...

The only way this works is when you are doing a fleet replacement against aging HP's. There are a zillion 42XX HP's and even though they are cheap to run on 3rd party cartridges customer are looking for something new. We are seeing closer to .01 on the MP 401 and SP 4520 which opens up lots of possibilities. Put 20 of them on a lease, replace the whole fleet with a single model and end up with a TCO of .013 or so. Getting to a single invoice, supplies and contact is icing on the cake.

What does "drop out colour send" mean?

Drop Out Color Send When scanning in B&W, users can choose to NOT capture a specific color -red, green, or blue - from a scanned page. This is useful when extracting data from forms, or to enhance OCR scanning accuracy by narrowing the range of color characters to be interpreted as editable text.

Can you expand on Distributed Scan management? I am use to the idea of creating one touch buttons or templates on the copier control panel to enable scanning or workflows. How is this different? Or is it just marketing?

With out much ballyhoo, Ricoh introduced two new A4 (can't scan, print, copy or fax 11x17) Black MFP's. The Ricoh SP4510SF and the MP 401SPF.    It's my understanding that the difference between the two devices is that the SP4510SF...

Both of the systems mentioned in the title are A4 black MFP's with print speed of 40ppm.  The SP model is marketed towards IT, where as IT would want to replace their own consumables.  Thus a much higher toner cost, end user can also...
