Re: Epson 100 ppm Ink MFP
I went back the next day to see a demonstration on this unit. I asked to see a demonstration of mixed sized originals. I was told, "sorry we are only doing controlled demonstrations and can't show that", I then asked does the device have that feature? The rep answered yes. WTF, controlled demo's? Thus, I'm thinking they are hiding something.

Re: HP PageWide Color Ink Cartridge
Was told the yield for the ink cartridges is 15K based on 5% coverage. Could not get a price for the ink. These PageWide systems are scheduled to be launched in the fall of 2017. BTW, three year warranty on the print head, does not matter how many clicks you put on it.

Managed Print Services! A 59-Billion-Dollar Business by 2025!!! Is MPS still a BAD INVESTMENT?
It seems like those who benefit from convincing resellers of the glories regarding Managed Print Services. Keep raising the outlook. Are people really buying this nonsense? Well, we do hear the testimonials from those who invest or have temporarily invested in the channel's future, putting a whole lot of faith. In what I describe, as the delusion of MPS 2025.

The Toner Wars
In a 2017 speech at the RT Media Summit in Zhuhai China, I warned the group of cartridge remanufacturers and those who manufacture non-infringing new compatibles. There is a more significant threat to both their business models than the threats from each other. That threat would be from the OEM’s as they would naturally attempt to get back their annuity business in a declining market. I suggested the OEM’s would compete like never before. The market is consolidating and most definitely there...

A Leveraged Loan Collapses and Reveals Key Risk in Credit Market
Special thanx to P4P member @Ray Stasiezcko for alerting me about this last week. Sorry for the late posting, however it's been the last few days of the month for me in my day job.

But in the past week it abruptly -- and alarmingly -- caught the attention of...

Re: HP PageWide Quality Mode Print
not a bad print, however not a great print either. HP is pushing two fronts with this device, security and acceptable color. I'm thinking more of a solution for enterprise accounts where quality color is not desired or needed. The system is also capable of tiered billing.

Re: HP A3 PageWide
I was also curious if this system could copy mixed size originals. You can not load a statement, letter, legal and ledger and have it pull from the appropriate paper trays. There is a setting on the device for letter and legal, and letter and ledger. BTW, I had to argue with the demonstrator, he told me that when we put a letter size doc and a ledger doc in the document feeder that the letter document would skew because the guides on the document feeder were holding the ledger doc in place...
