Reply to "Ricoh & Epson = "perfect together" NOT!"

The Epson argument has been going on for years. I brought one product in as a complement product and direct print production sales fought for Epson devices as part of the portfolio. I wouldn't allow it.

However, with Vellek in charge of all product marketing, a lot changed. Overall profitability on Epson to Ricoh is about 7-9%. Plus there is no way to lock a customer into a toner inclusive deal when they could by it anywhere on the web. Losing proposition for Ricoh, winning for Epson.  I ran into the PMs at the PhotoPlus show and the couldn't be happier  

Also, with no R&D into color toner devices Ricoh is just floundering in wide format.
