      A mind makes or breaks a connection, u need the pinout and protocol of the Ricoh machines to see how to build a custom cable. If your Ricoh as an external interface.

      Don;t worry, for the Canon IR2200 there was no external interface, guys needed to solder the cable directly on the mainboard, there were hardcore... it can be done.

        uniFlOW won't work on non-Canon machines

        Have a look at Ringdale's FollowMe Secure Document Output Management solutions Connecting People and Information - FollowMe(R) Printing, ActiveLED, LightSpace Building Automation, Building Access Control Systems, Print Servers, Biometric ID System, Fax and Workflow - Ringdale USA. FollowMe works with all manufacturers printers, MFPs and has embedded UI on Ricoh, Toshiba, Xerox, HP, Lexmark, Sharp, Kyocera and more.

              I think generally all soft wares can be manipulated to suit different conditions. These IT gurus know the tricks of how to do it. I may not be very conversant with the uniFlow management software, but let me give a typical example from the softwares which drive the internet modems.
              In my country here we have 7 internet service providers namely: X,Y,Z etc. Now each of these giant telecom companies..ISPs issue their own modems, either mobile usb modems, or DSL modems to their subscribed customers. Now ideally a modem issued by ISP X, is supposedly to be strictly used with X's network, and under ordinary use would not work in accessing the internet connection provided by ISP Y, or Z and vice versa. That means if a subscriber from X wants to cross to Y or Z, he or she must buy a separate modem meant for that respective ISP network.
              But nay, trust these young IT gurus. Call one of them or take your mobile modem to them, and for a fee they will manipulate the software to access and transmit data across all the networks of the different ISPs using only a single modem! One just need to keep inserting the SIM card of the different ISPs alternately in the modem, depending on which network you want to use or access at a particular instant or time.
              Technically speaking, these soft wares are nothing other than electric currents in digital forms 'fashioned' to behave in a certain manner, in the digital switching circuits..., and these behaviors can be manipulated or controlled. So It wouldnot be a farfetched idea for canon's uniFlow working to in Ricoh or other devices.
              Although I haven't tried it, I also highly suspect that canon's netscan gear, can, with a bit of manipulation be used as an alternative to Ricoh's 'ScanRouter' and vice versa. I have used both softwares on their own respective machines many times, and I've noticed thjat there's actually very little difference in their basics.
