This is the ramped up version of the old 1224/1232 (gee, I hope I got the model numbers right, I have not sold one of these in a year, Ricoh probably has not sold one since then either). We were told there is no more cycling issues (period!) Once the gal who was demonstrating the machine found out it was me (P4P Hotel) she made a comment to my friend that we have erroneous info on our site. Wish she would have said it too me, I would have told to her to kiss off and this is America (thanx Mike)!, and we will talk about the good, the bad and the ugly!, and boy was the 1224/1232 ugly!!
On with the good stuff, Ricoh is using a new poloymerized toner (I need a spell check on this), key advanatages is better saturation, more vibrant colors and no need for fuser oil. I must say the prints were very impressive!!!! This system will have all of the standard features that we are enjoying on our 22cpm series.
Hey, I beleive in Ricoh products and will give this new machine a spin in my territory and see how it goes. Nothing can be as bad as the 1224/1232.
