Firmware

Does anybody have an alternate source for Ricoh firmware, other than the TSRC?

RFG eSource, but if you don't have access to the TSRC then you won't have access to the eSource either. If you are looking for a repository of pirated files hosted outside of Ricoh then I can say I'm not aware (nor would I promote) of such a source.

This is a long shot, actually a very long shot to be honest, but if you cultivate a mutually acceptable relationship with an actual authorized Ricoh outlet, they may help you out. However, you need to do most of the work and it will take time if it even has a chance of succeeding.
I have seen that work once or twice in the past, though.

I can get it for you.
