Total agreement on this topic. Speed licensing is a great idea. For me personally, the model/speed and the price the manufacturers charge for them is kinda ludicrous. It’s the biggest rip off in our business. Everything is the same internally and externally from top to bottom but it’s $1500+ more for 45ppm compared to 35ppm for example. End of rant.

Ty for the comment, and that's a legit rant you have there. I always take the MSRP and divide by the speed to get the cost per speed. It never works out in our favor

Copier Manufacturers Shrinking MFP Offerings Wow, first time in months that I'll blog about something other than my days of selling copiers during COVID19. By now what I'm about to state shouldn't be considered breaking news for the copier industry. It was a few weeks ago when I received an email from a Print4Pay Hotel member that Ricoh was making some major changes to their MFP offerings. For many years it's been my belief that all manufacturers have too many devices offered to end users.

I agree there is no need for so many models. I would say on the license thing though why bother with license just only sell the color machines and just don't include any color pages in the contract. Then if they want to print color they can and just charge for the prints.

Ty for the comment. I agree just sell color machines, however for those manufacturers that still offer monochrome the color devices would be most costly for the hardware.
