Riso has announced that the HC5000 will be at the Dealer Meeting in Ft. Lauderdale October 6-8.
With the announcement came sample output. Solids look good, the quality overall very impressive for a 105ppm unit.

Is this the ink jet system?
Will you be at the Riso delaer meeting? I was on thier web site and see that they have added lexmark MFP's and printers to their line-up.
Do you see this as a desperation to keep some dealers in the fold. Or are they just trying to get a piece of the 1 trillion dollar market for the printed page?

Yes, I'll be at the dealer meeting.
The Lexmark affiliation is actually over a year old. Their concept was to provide a turn-key printing solution that would have print jobs automatically routed to the most cost-effective printing device depending upon preset print parameters.
I had always viewed it as a desperate attempt to remain viable. However, between the Ricoh SeriPrinter and the Riso HC5000, I have an improved confidence in the future of Digital Duplicators.

Same here, mind if I join you in October?

The Lexmark thing is now providing stability for Riso. Their sales actually increased last year, but only due to the sales of Lexmark. Otherwise, duplicator sales declined sharply, I hear. It would be great to get the scoop on this device, as Jim says, with the Seri and this, there might well be some life in the old girl yet!!!
I'll take two....
Oh my! How do you cost justify this product?
Jim:
Did you see this unit? Please give us the scoop on quality, duplexing and cost per page and anything else.
Thanx
