Kyocera 5050 Help!

Art, the Kyocera 5050 is a good machine. However I would focus on ease of use for the end user. The Kyocera KM5050 has to many panel layers to scroll through for the casual user. The MP5000 all features can be accessed through the front panel. Art, send me an email and I can send you more information or give me a call.

Larry:

Thanx for the help on the phone today, this is what the P4P is all about. Being able to get help outside of your dealer or mfg network.

Art

You are quite welcome. Keep up the great work on this site. I commend you!

Art, I have the BLI report on the KM5050 as well as few other bits. How big of files can I send you?

You can send me a large file, if that does not work you could upoload to my doc mall account.

Boy I had to bite my tongue on this one. Larry's advice to focus on ease of use is the best approach. There is no comparison in terms of reliability. This segment is where Kyocera shines and Ricoh has big issues.

As a dual line dealer who also has Kyocera I have to say Tom Clark is right on. Because of service issues the Kyocera is the winner. Once you know how to customize the Kyocera touchscreen it is just as user friendly as a Ricoh. In fact you can customize their touchscreen any way you want for the customer, something you can't do with a Ricoh.

My suggestion would be not to be selling based on the hardware. The hardware is now just a commodity. If you focus on the hardware you will lose alot of deals to guys like me. I am selling myself and the value add I and my company can give the customer.
