Re: What's the weirdest place you've sold a copier to?
About to hit 17 years in the industry now so seen a few.. Sold a scanner to a strip club, I was new to the industry and just a teenager at the time - made the mistake of asking what they wanted to scan Had a "serviced" copier in a massage parlour (inherited the install base so I cant take credit for this) Sold/installed copiers/MFD's to both of the last two Prime Ministers offices/houses Installed a fax machine INSIDE a jail, there was a very dusty gap and some cables on the desk so I asked...

Re: Desktop Shortcut to Scanned Images via store to HDD in scanner
Its pretty strait forward. Default the scanner to Store File to HDD. At the PC create a desktop shortcut to Web Image Monitor. Have customer click on Print Job/Store File -------> Document server. They will be able to download the document. The real problem though is you are encountering a lazy IT guy. Any IT guy worth his salt will help you set up scan to folder.

Re: Five Reasons Why I'm Stoked About the New Ricoh SP8400DN Printer
Nice read. Good printer. I am curious about the 'device billing'. What exactly do you mean by 'device billing'?

Re: Five Reasons Why I'm Stoked About the New Ricoh SP8400DN Printer
Device billing is when you charge a flat price for service each month. There clicks are unlimited, however the client needs to buy the consumables. Preferably from you.

Re: Five Reasons Why I'm Stoked About the New Ricoh SP8400DN Printer
What consumables are not included? Only the toner? What about other parts like drums, fuser, rollers etc.? Do you do those kind of agreements for MFP's too?
Comment
Re: Five Reasons Why I'm Stoked About the New Ricoh SP8400DN Printer
No, we are not doing any of those agreements with our MFP's. With the printer the device billing would not include the drum, or fuser. Client would pay for those. Device billing is a practical maintenance agreement for the new A3 ink based MFP's. Epson will be launching their 100ppm color device shortly. The only consumables is the print head and the ink. It's rumored that the print head will be warranted for 3 years. In addition the print head is very costly. The idea would be to charge...

Re: Five Reasons Why I'm Stoked About the New Ricoh SP8400DN Printer
Client Pro's: Lower purchase or lease price for hardware Faster print speed than laser based vs same segment ink vs laser Unlimited pages No overage billing No unpredicted costs with overages Less downtime than laser Client Cons: Quality of prints or copies may not be equal to laser (does not matter if prints or copies stay in house) Print Head cost Ink cost may be higher than color laser, however that may be off-set by the lower purchase price Anyone care to add?

Had a conference call with Epson Monday afternoon. They said the ended up with a 1 year warranty on the print heads but you can purchase an extended warranty for something like $250/yr.? I didn't write that down because the only thing that matters to me is what gets passed on to the customer and manufacturers warranties are seldom passed on.

I guess he was just referring to the Epson C869R (25 ppm). We kept asking questions about the 100 ppm unit and I lost track which unit this information applied to. Sorry for the confusion. We have a launch on the 11th and he promised more info on the 100 ppm at that time.

Re: Five Reasons Why I'm Stoked About the New Ricoh SP8400DN Printer
Just to be clear, it is an Epson Launch, not a launch of the 100 ppm. He just said that he would know more about the 100 ppm when he came on the 11th.

Wow the OKI wide formats! Haven't run across any of these yet. I do remember that Oki bought a minor wide format player a number of years ago. Ah, now I remember, it was the Seiko wide format devices. I need to brush up on this one for you. The first thing I would lead with is how long Ricoh has had the same digital print engine. I believe it to be one of the most reliable engines on the market today. The Ricoh MP W6700 and MP 7100 are identical except that you can add a dual roll feeder to...

Re: Need some help ---Scan Router for Vista 64 Bit
I am having trouble scanning to Vista with the 816mf and it doesn't even need ScanRouter, it is serverless. I posted the problem and got some helpful info as you have about possible firewall or antivirus interference. I also heard that you must set a password in Vista for shared folder - no choice - but I am not sure if that is true yet, need to get back to the customer's office soon to check. Also was told Vista Home was not scanner friendly but there was no explaination for that.

Re: Ricoh W5100
I don't believe you can use the Ratio Scantool without PB. Why can't you use the W5100 with the GW Scanner. I think this is all you need. Also, the WFCS is on the GSA Contract dated July 29, 2009. The product code is 100117FNG for $6,500. You need the "software key" that will allow you to utilize the scanner without having a Ricoh WF attached on the network. The product code is 100257FNG, $4,500 MSRP and the launch date should have been the end of October.

Re: It's Official, RICOH US launch of SP5200 Black A4

Re: Image Quality Not a Main Criteria in MFP Purchase
Let me ask everyone...with respect to the title of this thread "Image Quality not the main criteria in an MFP purchase". Lately I'll mention the scan speed of the device before I mention the speed of the device. I'm finding more and more prospects are more concerned about speed of the scanner, and secondary features such as scan2pdf, scan2folder, scan2word, scan2excel, blank page detection, and drop out color. Thoughts?

Re: CW2200SP
Just browse through the brochure and documentation for the Canon. The user interface on the MFP is weak. Its a plotter with a scanner (probably a Contex) added. The Ricoh MFP has our standard user interface. Anybody who has a Ricoh MFP of any kind can walk up to this new machine and know exactly how to use it. Would be interesting to see a Monster Garage featuring the two products.
Reply
Re: CW2200SP
By the way, one of the connectors between the scanner and main body has to click into place or else the machine will throw an SC 101 code. It is very easy for the tech at set-up to push the connector on and think its set when in fact a good connection is not made unless it actually clicks.

Re: CW2200SP
we have placed about 100 Canon MFPs the last 20 or so are the 40MFP scanner. It is far superior to the Ricoh and less exspensive as well, the scanner is 1200dpi and the quility is stunning. The new 3.0 user interface is much better than Ricohs the CW2200 is going to have a tough time matching up the Canon.

Re: MP 4002SP Blank page detection not working
Yea really, the only good it would do I guess is if you put the originals in face down and instead of accidently having a blank file when you go to look at it you are warned ahead of time. They do have a Canon DR-5020 scanner that after the file is scanned it goes back and deletes all the blank sides. It takes a while of course. So yes, it would almost have to be a third party software solution that would go into a PDF and delete the blanks. I will look and see if Nuance has a solution or if...

This is not a security feature, it is more of a convenience feature.

Re: HP 4100mfp
Another thing to keep in mind, the HP 4100 MFP is indeed a 4100 with a scanner attached to it. This product is meant to be A PRINTER FIRST and a copier/scanner/fax secondary. If they are looking for it as a copier, they will be in trouble. Looks good on the surface and HP makes an outstanding printer, no doubt about that, but they just are not there yet in the copier biz.
