Naming standardization. Early models using MP were Aficio MP. Next models released the Aficio was dropped. Also at the same time Savin, Gestetner and Lanier all changed to the same naming standard. Around the same time, Ricoh did some reorganization of their dealer divisions. Since Lanier had better name recognization in North America and Gestetner had better name recognization in Europe, all Gestetner dealers in North America became Lanier dealers and all Lanier dealers in Europe became Gestetner dealers.
