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.

Take it from me. I've got a "selling manager" and he's a good sales person and a good manager, however I'm a firm beleiver that you can't do two things at once and excel with both of them.

Re: 1060/1075 paper weights

On the 60/75 engines, they are only spec'd to run up to 34lb bond through trays 1-3, and 43lb bond through the bypass. 43lb bond does not even equate to 110 index, as marketed, only 90lb index (just).

Re: Need help getting accounting software into Excel
Could the number have been 5574 rather than 5447? The reason I ask is 24x36 is 5574 sq. centimeters. Try this formula while in excel: =((cell ref.*.394)*40%) This gives you one dimension =((cell ref.*.394)*60%) gives you the other dimension. Example (5574*.394)*40%) = 24 inches ((5574*.394)*60%) = 36 inches To convert centimeters to inches multiply by .394 24 and 36 are 40% and 60% respectively of a whole.

Re: Pay Plan
I agree, without sales, service would be unemployed in 3 to 5 years. And yes, sales profit is at a minimum. However, if all MA the profit went the sales department where would service get its revenue from? The “billable dollars” would not be enough to support the salaries of the service employs. We’re robbing Peter, to pay Paul. Some sales people sale boxes for profit, and if the dollar amount (in the pocket) is not there, they walk away to minimize their wasted time.

Re: BizHub
Ricoh MFPs use 2 bit depth technology with 4 shades per color, vs. Konica's 8 bit depth with 256 shades per color. The Konica color engine (which came from the Minolta side, noted for their color technology) handles color better because it is built to. (What I see when I look at print samples of the same photo: the Konica color looks crisper and more "full bodied"; the Ricoh color looks blotchier and pixelated.) If you have a exacting graphics or marketing client, you can't just skate by.

Re: FM Audit and other USB discovery devices
We’ve used FM Audit at several locations to capture monthly print volume. I used it under ITs’ supervision of course. It’s a very useful tool. It won’t capture printers connected directly to PCs but, most of them are very low volume anyway. As for cost analysis, you can export to excel and plug in the cost per page for each model printer. Giving you the monthly or yearly cost. A very good tool for sales and cost justification.

Re: Adobe PostScript vs. Emulation
All you have to do is look at the competitive analysis (See Attached) between the Ricoh C4503 and C6502 against the competitors from Canon, Xerox, and KM to see how much of a difference True Adobe PostScript makes in the printing speed. Emulation machines are noticeably slower, to the point that you could argue that a lesser Ricoh needs to be proposed in order to compare accurately.

Re: To Ricoh "What I Want for Christmas"
The best thing Ricoh could give us is advanced scanning functionality as a standard feature. To be able to navigate to whatever network folder a user wants would be huge, as would the ability to scan to Word or Excel. Canon already has these features, so we are at a huge price disadvantage if it is functionality a customer needs since we have to add ICE (which has a less-than-desirable UI) or NSI AutoStore.
