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: 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: Panasonic Canada discontinues A3 Copier Distribution March 2011
I am certain they were actually Fuji engines labeled as Panasonic models.

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: Up against Minolta with a Rioh MP-C6501/Savin C9065 & MPC5501/Savin C9155
This will be a tough battle to prove without a sample file. I would educate the customer and understand the stock they are using and the application that created the file. What driver are they using? I would have them make sure each person is using the same stock. If the customer does not provide a stock for you...then make sure you use Hammermil, 98 semi-gloss to make the color pop. I would if possible invite the customer to the showroom and show them how easy it would be to produce the...

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?
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.

Re: MPC 7500 Coated Paper Settings
I suggest asking your technical department. Glossy paper is not recommended for the Ricoh products. Try using a silk paper it works great. This tip came from a printer friend of mine which uses the Ricoh's in a pay for print environment.

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: 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
