Lets see IKON brand is now gone...(good), however does "not directly impact the dealer channel" mean no impact at all or there may be some impact?

I heard that there were 220 layoffs, however no one has been able to confirm this, I'm thinking this is all on the direct side of the channel?

Seems to me Ricoh has concentrated on Production systems and MDS (Champs), and have left gaping holes in the product line. Since most dealers don't or can't afford to carry the Production Units and most dealers are not doing the Champs program. I see this as a benefit for the Direct more than dealer.

We (Dealers) still don't have the A4 blacks systems, seems now that there was never a low end wide format LED device, and we have no A3 Black product except for the repositioned MP2500B (which is 3 years old).

Just wish they would get their act together....
