We have sold a used Ricoh 240w that has the interface card install in unit. I understand that a external PC is need to use as a printer/scanner. Not being an authorized dealer and not seen one of these machines being used for printing, was wondering what is need in PC to connect to 240w. We had a few requests from other customers looking at wide format. We can pickup used machines from wholesaler and some of them have card installed in copier but do not have the external pc.
Thanks

The PC's that w installed with the 240W's hold the plotbase software and all the licenses for scanning and printing along with the print card or interfa card. Not sure which one. But one of those cards are in the PC that was sold with the 240W.

You can buy licenses, however there are no more cards (Printer controller and interface) avaialable new.

I would call the wholesaler and tell him the deal, maybehe cfind you a card. This isone of the reasons why you need to be authorized for Ricoh wide format. There're not as simple as copiers.
The print card that was originally with the unit has a serial number that any print, pdf, or scan oprions originally purchased are tied to (via the serial number). That card is worth $1500 - $3000. It's worth tracking down if possible. Otherwise, I think "wide format guy" or Ratio America (http://www.ratioamerica.com) might be able to help you with a print card and options.
