Well it's not exactly a subscription service. Take Ricoh ICE for example, if a dealer wants to resell it, it's available for purchase for 1-5 year terms for a decent discount. Now I've heard the same as you, that with the new intelligent series that users will be able to download apps and pay for them monthly. Which leads to a heck of a lot of questions. Who gets the comp? Is a credit card info residing on the hard drive? Who's going to support it if it's downloaded directly from the...

We are often guilty of looking at everything through a dealer's lense. Ricoh doesn't look at anything with an eye to the dealer channel. When you look at SAS from the Direct perspective things make more sense.

I've been hearing more manufacturers use term "subscription" services when releasing new MFP software/solutions (i.e. Ricoh's Cloud Workflow Solutions/Lexmark's Cloud Print Infrastructure). It sounds like the MFR is offering software/solutions as a monthly fee with no additional annual investment or long-term contract. Basically, wondering if this is different than previous cost structures or just a different way to capture the same revenue but as a recurring stream (vs. a lump sum)? Looking...

This will be interesting. For the model they provided a monthly number there is a six month contract. Curious if they took the manufacturing cost and divided by six months. Another question would be if there is a monthly charge for scans? Would like to hear from others if you know more about this subscription service

UPS and Fedex are going to hate this. HP does not manufacturer paper, thus I would suspect in order to maximize profit, they will shop for the lowest price. This may lead to inferior paper for performance and print quality
