    I especially miss all the AF1035's that have been replaced with MP4000's... straight from one of the best mid volume machines Ricoh ever made to the worst.

        sharp 750... hhhmmm ran a bit dirty the 756 was by far a cleaner runner(remember the scanner unitorings failing!! lol
        8200 ok.... feed rollers a bit naff and doc feed a bit doggish
        ricoh 105 V1 & V2 toner supply a dog and clutches, plastic guides/ mylars a bit weak but a good box if you knew what you where at!!!!

                I do agree, I like the 105 too. I have one with 12.5mill on it and it still runs like a dream,..... ok, it has it's moments. I service it regularly and it just hums along.

                  I agree on the Canon NP120/125. Also the Minolta EP450Z, best machine Minolta ever made.

                    Canon NP6650. (circa 1988 and up).

                    Other than the inverter clutch assembly (for duplex) they ran and ran.
