They are the cheapest part of any copier maintenance and always get overlooked but play 1 of the most important parts in a copier, anyway.....

    In regards to toner pumps, don't even go there, that technology is over 7 years old and has been rectified by gravity feed system now so you have no leg to stand on there

    Sponge rollers are part of the preventative maintenance so again, parts you should be carrying in the back of your car like tray rollers and document feeder parts that get changed as regularly as them, again no leg to stand on.....

    Devices need to have weaknesses, otherwise no one here would be employed.

    I'm sure you have heard of Rizo graphs? Ever wondered why they went bust? Maybe because they over engineered the crap out of them and they never broke down which meant no servicing which also meant to revenue which means bust over a long period of time. I look after a lot of schools which still have Rizo's that are 30 years + old just chugging away with not 1 breakdown in that time just printing out flyers and things like that, only issue users have is the aftermarket master they buy doesn't work as well.....

    I'm sure you understand the point, either way get your hands on some of Ricoh's newer technology and I'm sure you wont be so negative about it all

    If you still are, just wait for the 5 series colour devices to come out, then I'm sure you wont have anything to whinge about if what I'm told is true about them, most of us wont be in a job for much longer.....
    Sorry to inform you buddy, but the company that serviced ricoh machines i was with was bought out by another company that has Konica-minolta as their main brand. Catch my drift?!...Ricoh is going the way of the Dodo bird!!!

      You clearly have no idea lol

      You may want to check out the manufacturers and total profit margins and where they sit, then come back and talk to me about your beloved KM machines

      While I don't know much about the KM devices, I know they sit well behind Ricoh, Kyocera and Xerox so keep peddling

      Either way we have gone way off topic, please continue with the issue at fault...

        Brings to mind an anecdotal quote from one of my accountants:
        Everything is on the march to the rubbish tip except the land.

        I would wager that earth(land) will likewise end with a cataclysmic event at some point in the colossus of time.
        Knowing the above: the purest would then argue that there is no such thing as perpetual motion.

        Every thing ebbs and flows within its give cycle. ...What's up one day is down the next.
