Re: Will outside Sales Rep's go away?
It will be interesting to see what the manufacturers allow and don't allow. As of right now they are still very against e-Commerce and listing things on websites etc. I can only speak for my experience with Canon, Sharp and Brother, but they do not want things done via the web.

Re: Will outside Sales Rep's go away?
I believe it will be a mixed environment, just like with PC's and other peripherals. For the small number of placements, onesie-twosie, I see E-commerce and inside sales taking over the role of the outside sales rep. For the larger accounts a sales rep will continue to play a role.

Re: Will outside Sales Rep's go away?
@PatrickB let's hope that stands true. There are those that are pushing e-commerce for all sales. I can't see if happening either.

Re: Will outside Sales Rep's go away?
In 10 years there WILL be outside sales reps, and many of them will be the committed, true professionals of today. The E-Commence platform have changed our business and how we do it. For example gone are the days when you could duck into a 15 story office building and cold call. But electronic format can still be your attention getter and facilitate your efforts in creating interest. I can buy anything on line and cut out the sales person. Try doing your own investing and getting the right...

Re: Things getting weird for Xerox Dealers
Very strange. I interact with the CRG on a regular basis and have had no indication of reduced staff, etc. I can’t comment on your issue with parts as we do not rely on xerox to send our parts, we stock and replenish out of our own warehouse. No substantial difference between xerox parts on b/o than Canon or HP. Not nearly as bad as Ricoh. We dropped the ricoh product years ago as we couldn’t handle the constant toner b/o issues.

Re: W6700sp help!
Got it, what we use is an exit tray that is sold by "Copier Solution Shop". The new exit tray will allow "e" size documents to exit to the front of the W6700 and they don't have to use the rear exit. I believe it will stack 50 or so. All of my clients love and their has never been a complaint. Here's the link https://www.copiersolutionshop...put-tray-rot-1.html, I will check for a video.

Re: UPDATE 3-Canon buys Dutch Oce for $1.1 bln, fights Ricoh

Re: Dealer Management Software
Thanks Printfun, and let me clarify my remarks . My company (and the company I worked for before that) uses OMD. I do not use e-Automate. However, from speaking with several other vendors, I like what I have heard and seen of e-Automate. I do not know anything about the pricing details, so I can't compare that portion.

Re: Dealer Management Software
Thanks for the clarification Jason. I am getting the same impression you are from other dealers. It seems many of the successful dealers/agencies we have talked are using E-Automate and are very happy with it. It also integrates nicely with some of the software we need for MPS management and accounting.

Re: Q. How does your company handle networking charges?
My rule is, if they need more training, or something wrong or inconvenient with the way I set up the print scan, I'll make it right, no charge.

Well, an update on this problem. Ricoh and EFI have confirmed there is a problem with e-710 scanning.

They have released a patch but it doesn't help. Just wanted to let you know that, YES there are some problems, and YES Ricoh knows about them.
