I'm putting together a proposal for a prospect who is loyal to their Canon rep. Basically, I will have to low ball on the price and hope to at least put some friction in the love affair. The prospect is mostly interested in scanning.

Can anyone give me any advice on how the Ricoh 2035/2045 might be superior to the Canon machines I may see?

Thanks for any help.

You said they are primarily interested in scanning. May I assume that they are interested in electronic paper management as well? If so, Canon may propose their fine eCopy solution as well. Virtual Copier is a powerful very cost effective solution and may help you jusify a premium rather than having to resort to price cutting. Give me a call and lets discuss what the customer is looking for.

The Canon units I have seen all do TWAIN interface scanning. This means that you go to the copier, put the documents in the adf, go back to your pc and open the TWAIN interface and click on the scan button. Keep in mind this means no one can use the copier while you have your documents in the adf.
As you know we can scan to the desktop, to a file folder on the network or an ftp folder.
The other thing you need to know is where is this scan to be stored and why. How often will it need to be retrieved and how will you find it when you need it. This is why Steve mentioned Document Management.
Let me know if I can help.
