Anyone familiar with this Xerox unit and if there are any dual line dealers out there can you give me a comparison between the Ricoh MPC4500 and the Xerox WC7345?
Thanks,
John

Some quick notes for you, I downloaded the op manual, here's what I found:
User must replace all drums, waste toner unit,and fuser. Xerox calls then CRU's (Customer Replacable Units)
No Scan2url
Color output at 35ppm, black @ 45ppm
No Doc Server
75 Page Doc Feeder
8 inch color screen
max copy res 600x600
When replacing paper, user must always confirm via touch panel for paper sizes
In order to make a copy, the manual states these procedures:
Select Clear All
Select All Services
Select Copy icon
Select copy features
Press Start
Seems rather cumbersome to me, plus the fact that users have to install drums, and fusers (ouch), plus guss with waste toner bottles!
Couple of cool features:
print from USB thumb drive, and media card
v-fold
It's late and that was some of things that popped out at me! I suggest to download the manuals from the Xerox site and give them a good going over and I'll be you'll uncover alot more.
Over and Out!

Does anyon else have anything to add?
The Ricoh Product & Solution Training Portal (www.ricohconnects.com- go to the resource section) has a lot of good competitive information.

When going to Ricoh Connects, you need to take the B2C Course, it has the Xerox 7328 which is the same as the 45 except for speed. You can then walkthrough all of the applications.

Here is a full comparison
The side-by-side that Mr. Copy posted was for the MP C4500 SPF, which includes fax. The revised attachment shows the MP C4500 for a more apples-to-apples comparison. Please note that copy/scan/print are all standard on the Ricoh, while scanning is optional on the Xerox.

Speaking from an engineering side and normally speaking to the actual operators many like the option to change units themselves. Many also like the option in the case of where an engineer is delayed or saving time waiting for the engineer to return and fit parts.
If they don't, they like the speed it takes for an enineer to come in and replace all the units and the machine up and running asap.
You can see this was going to happen with the mpc45000 due to the way all the units are so easy to take out and fit. With just bodged up screws to hold in the waste toner etc.
So i guess sometimes its a plus and other times a minus.
