This Week in the Copier Industry 10 Years Ago, The First Week in June 2003

 

WooHoo!  Finally a decent Saturday at the NJ Shore.  For our family it was Cousins Day at Monmouth Park in NJ.  Cousins get together to share some food, share some drinks and get to place some bets on the ponies.

I love going to the track and wish I had more time to do it.  While I only placed four bets, I was able to come home with $300 in profit. Not a bad day at all.  What was more interesting is that I lost a super trifecta bet that would have paid $18K.  Next time I'll pay more attention to placing two bets instead of one. Oh well there's always next time!  

Enjoy the threads from ten years ago this week!

networking a Ricoh Wide Format

·
Does anyone have a cheat sheet for putting a wide format digital copier/scanner/printer on a local network? I have scribbled notes on how to share it out, add a TCI/IP port, ect...but it was brutal yesterday during a new install. Tech support got us through, but I'd like to do it next time without their assistance. ps: We are techs who are facing the daunting task of turning into IT guys a little more each day. Thanks.

MP W2400 w/ embedded GW controler

·
Does anyone know if the GW controller can print DWG, DWF, PDF, TIFF and JPEG file formats? And does it support AutoCad 2008? I have a Product Information Guide, but I think it is a bit vague about this.. Anyone?

Re: MP W2400 w/ embedded GW controler

DWG and DWF can only be printed with the external PlotBase controller, and it is an option for multiple submittals. PDF, TIFF, PLT files will print through GW controller. However, cannot submit multiple PDFs, must print one at a time. External PlotBase controller will submit multiple PDFs. AutoCad 2008 files will print using the Windows Printer Driver, you should be able to submit multiple ACAD 2008 .PLT files, haven't tried this. If it is a large volume of printing, a lot of multiple file

Re: networking a Ricoh Wide Format

Using the internal GW controller, it should install just like any other MFP device, just build a printer and share it out on the network. A few things that may or may not pertain to the install: Because of the size of wide format files, many prefer to print from each individual workstation to the wide format device, rather than the server spooling the file. The trade off is the wide format device prints slower because the server is not doing the spooling. The RPCS driver is not really designed

Re: Sales Tips

Today is 20% of your sales week. Two sales days are 10% of your month. To have only two "slow days" each month is equivalent to having more than one full month of "slow days" each year. sales point... Every moment of every sales day matters. These are your "money hours." Hesitation for a "better sales day" of the week or a time when you're feeling more "up to the task" will have a long-term effect on your ultimate sales results (and discipline). It's this serious. Every sales day is a sales day
