Re: Need HELP! Kyocera Color A3 question
Top three points I make when against Kyocera. #1. Take them color samples from your device and any Kyocera because the color output is sub par on all units. If you don’t have access to one look in your crm for an account you co-exist with Kyocera in. Or the next time you have a knock out make some samples and keep them in a binder. If color quality is important to the customer it will be a win. Another point is showing them you get what you pay for, meaning 3 tier color is what they have...

Re: Need HELP! Kyocera Color A3 question
Copystar/Kyocera 7052ci and 8052ci are still current models as the 7353ci and 8353ci were just released. same goes the the 70/80ppm mono's. not sure when they will get discontinued but we can still order them as of today.

Re: Print Copy Tool versus Plotworks
John, The PrintCopy Tool compares pretty favorably to Plotworks. I attached two documents to this post. The Product Support Guide lists differences between the two products. The PowerPoint has screen shots of all the settings in PrintCopy Tool. I hope this helps.

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: Panasonic Canada discontinues A3 Copier Distribution March 2011
Did Panasonic make their A3 MFPs for anyone else? Were they ever sold under a non-Panasonic label? The color units have a "Fuji" look to them and earlier A3 color units were also sold as Xerox WorkCenters and were from Fuji.

Re: Industrial Label Printers
We sold two copiers recently to a Window & Door Manufacturer. One of the copiers had 4k clicks on it in less than a week so we thought we would have a good revenue stream. I have been thinking about these Label printers so I asked the client about how they use the ones that they already have. I was floored when the client told me that they plan to spend $100k this year on labels alone.

Re: Does any National Copier Vendor still have their own in house leasing service?
Canon has Canon Financial Services - which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Canon. This is a true captive program with Canon financial servicing the majority of the leases they originate Ricoh - Most of Ricoh's leases are sold to 3rd party leasing companies (GE, DLL, CIT, Wells) on a private label basis. Ricoh does have Ricoh Financial Services which is a true captive, but it only takes a small portion (Major Accounts) of the leases that are originated by Ricoh Ikon - they utilize Ikon...

Re: Competitive Copier Vendors
I think the local dealers biggest advantage against the National vendors is flexibility. Dealers naturally have much shorter chains of command due to having far less employees. Therefore, dealers can make quicker decisions. The National Vendors are always going to have the advantage of price and a lesser concern for profitability. If you cant beat them on price, thow in some change-ups on them. 1.Free Pro Services 2 Free HDD Decommissioning 3.Copy Blocks 4. Throw a "bonus" Office Chair,...

Re: MPC2500 migrate to MPC3002
I don't think there is a way to do this. I remember thinking it was possible and then having to print all of the files off the old machine & scan/label them for the customer. It was a doctor's office that stored all of their paperwork in their Document Server. Biggest beating ever!

Re: Ricoh Rumor!! New Strategy?
This seems to be a pretty good box but I have seen some problems. First of all if you have the Muratec machine, make sure you don't forget to put the Muratec sticker over the Samsung label!!! LOL One pain in the ass thing is having to tell the machine what size paper is in the tray whenever you refill the tray or load the bypass. I can understand and accept having to set the bypass size but not the main trays!!! Kinda stooooopid if you ask me. Also you can't recieve faxes in 11" and 14". You...

Re: Ricoh Rumor!! New Strategy?
We have a half dozen or so in the field, no complaints here, I did watch a customer send a print job of a 100 page booklet and there was no pause. Is this just happening with copies? If so, it could be a memory issue. The machine that I spoke about had the memory upgrade installed before we put it in the field. That may be the issue. Let me know what you come up with.

Re: JP4500 Meter
The trouble with using user tools, is that it's a resettable counter, and thus would not be good to use, as it can be reset! Tech Sp mode under CopyData keeps ongoing, but is not customer accessible. Mechanical counters are inside front cover, to the left of the drum, covered by a plastic label type thing. Suggest that that label is pulled off on set-up, to allow counter readings. Cheers.

We have a Fortune 500 company that is completely SAP and the only problems we have is occassional kick-back from IT because we are not on the list. However, I...

Re: Hot Spot Printers
SO, the way the Hotspot printers work (as I understand it) is, you plug them in and give them internet access and there is a label on the front with the printers email address. You email your document to the printer and it prints. You can optionally require that the submitter pay a fee via credit card (provider takes a cut of that)before it prints. So, the service fees for this would cover the email address, not an IP as the printer is sitting on your network, presumably behind firewalls, etc.

Re: Competitive Info needed Lexmark XM1145
I would focus on the cost per page first. Find out of the customer is going to take a maintenance agreement. You may have win there. If no maintenance agreement is needed I would then focus on the consumables costs of the A4 device. Such as cost per page for toner, cost per page for drum (imaging) and cost per page for the fuser kit. I found the fuser maintenance kit on CDW for $269.99, however, there is no yield stated. I also found another fuser kit for $356 and the yield is 200K which...

Re: Ricoh Production Unit Question
There is friction feed with air separation on all the current production machines. So they have rollers that actually feed the paper and there are fans that blow the paper apart to help prevent multifeeding and it also helps if the paper sticks together and won't pull out of the tray.

Re: Kyocera Extends Award-Winning TASKalfa Technology Into Seven New Multifunctional Products
Just an FYI, I had the chance to inspect a previous model of one of these types of systems. I pulled out the paper drawer and I then realized that the cover of the paper drawer (which is plastic) had the feel of the same plastic that is used for garbage cans. Just my opinion and to me it doesn't bode well for the rest of the parts.

Re: Ricoh Wide Format Marketing
Art - I feel your pain! In a letter to a Senior VP at Konica, my boss wrote that selling the Konica 8050 to IKON, and allowing them to re-label, was the biggest sellout in the history of the copier industry. I guess that Konica isn't the only "sellout" when it comes to their products. I hope for all our sake that the "X" dealer doesn't get involved because it's pretty easy to sell against them in the WF arena right now. Good luck
