Build job on Ricoh?

Re: Build job on Ricoh?

Don't let a salesman take your money and run and leave a tech to clean up his mess.

I would hope you would have asked this before buying this unit..
When i worked for the mothership I had salesman promise the machine would serve coffee and donuts just to make a sale.
I would do some tweaking but there are things even we cant make possible..
If said cant do what you want and was told it can,then return it.
If you never asked then it is on you.

I was not involved with the purchase. As usual, people who don't use the machines handled all that.

Do you just want to add covers to a printorder, or is it that a (par exemple) delivery sheets needs to come out in triple in 3 different colourd pages?

If the last issue is what you want, then it's only for highly trained IT'ers.
The first issue is salesman...

I am creating meeting packets. Specifically: an agenda on white paper, then the previous meetings minutes are on pink paper, then there is a printed yellow sheet between each agenda item that has the specific agenda item number on it. In between those yellow sheets are white sheets with the information, and those can be mixed sizes. I take it this is a job for highly trained IT'ers?

Then you did not put it in batch mode before you did anything else. It should not start until you hit the #. If your sales staff cannot figure it out, they need to contact Ricoh Sales Support. In fact your sales manager should have done so before ever selling the machine. Prevents unsatisfied customers.

The trainer was here today, and confidently stepped up to the machine, did the batch thing, and got exactly the same result I did. We both did put it in batch mode first, put in the first original and BAM, it prints it out right away. No opportunity to press the #, it just prints when you scan the first original.

Testing :
Change the paper colour and orientation in one of the copier trays to A4-R(letter-R). Place coloured paper in the A4-R paper tray.

Using two blank sheets of A4(Letter)paper, put one sheet in the doc feeder LEF (long edge first) and the other 90deg SEF(short edge first).

Make sure paper "Auto Select" is on.
Enter the normal user "Batch Mode" and "Mixed Sizes" highlighted (on) and then press the "GO" button.

Does the copier print from different paper trays for each of the different original orientation in the doc feeder?
If not,Auto rotation mode or shrink to fit mode might be prevalent ....

Go into |User Tools | Copier settings| Auto tray switching| without image rotation| highlighted=on.

Quick fix:
With the above settings working correctly you can hard set your own coloured "slip/cover pages" by rotating the originals in the document feeder(ADF) by 90deg. Every 90deg page will print with colour page separated at the correct place in the founding document.

The quick fix will get you going until IT or Sales get off their posterior and show you how to do cover slips with all the bells and whistles. That will be some where in |special originals| batch|mixed| cover slips|design chapters| etc.. etc...

Since this is a SOP v2 machine are you trying to do this from the Classic Copy screen or the newer smart op copy program screen? If you haven't tried the classic copy screen then try that.

This sounds like a job that requires a document assembly/publishing software solution to me. The page format for each page specifies the source tray for that page.

Did you have sort enabled, and did you scan all the originals or give up once the device statred printing the first couple of pages?

I think you'll find with sort enabled the first set is printed as you scan and then the remaining sets are printed after scanning is completed and the # key is pressed. This enables the user to have a proof copy before commiting themselves to printing the remainder.

Just think yourself lucky the salesman didn't replace your Sharp with an HP. With a Ricoh at least you have a chance of getting it to do as you want, just have to learn the different ways of setting it up. With a HP........forget it!
HP were supposed to have spent a billion dollars to get into the A3 copier market, I don't know what they spent it on as it definitely wasn't market research. We had to give one customer their money back as the HP hadn't a chance of doing what was promised.
