Ricoh 2022sp firmware and windows 10

[gideon]

Anyone can share the most current firmware for the 2022sp?

The customer switch to windows 10 and he can't connect the copier to his computer.

before I'm going there I thought to have the valid firmware.

I have the service manual.

Thanks

This model does not use SD cards for firmware. It uses PCMCIA cards. The blue 4MB flash memory card (Ricoh part number A2309350 or N8036701) may or may not still be available. The Memory Card Explorer for Ricoh May or may not still be available to RFG dealers. The demo version may still be available.

Requires software run on Windows XP. Hardware requirement is a computer compatible with Windows XP that has a PCMCIA I slot. PCMCIA II will not work.

All that considered, you will be much better off Updating the MFP not the firmware.

Thanks for the detailed answer. When you say updating the MFP do you imply to replace the copier?

You can pick up an XP system for peanuts, set a scan folder on this & share in to the network with the Win 10 machines.

Gideon, If your connection problems are with printing, choose a windows 7 x64 pcl6 driver. Should work fine.
And a great scan solution, as above, to pick up an XP cheap for scan router

Upgrading the MFP is going to be a better idea than advising any customer to put an end of life XP system on their network. Even if you block it from internet access, just having that machine on the network constitutes a risk to the customer's overall environment. Windows 10 has also disabled SMB 1, which is all XP can use, by default since it's also slow, drastically out of date, and opens other security issues.

Re: Ricoh 2022sp firmware and windows 10

Though I agree with the risks of SMB1, though I have not had any of my customer's have an issue with SMB1. The bigger problem would be the customers external firewall. If a computer gets infected or whatever the risk is, it is the network firewalls job to stop it first. The computer firewall is primarily for protection from the local network. Not disagreeing with the above. Just feel SMBV1 problems get blown out of proportion a little.

you say >>he can't connect the copier to his computer..
you mean scan and not print?
if scan is the issue
use twain and a program like scan to pdf..
I remember having these old boxes scanning but have not seen one in over 5 years.........

Re: Ricoh 2022sp firmware and windows 10

Just hooked one of these up (For printing) on 6 - Windows 10 Surfaces without an issue. Scanning is probably not going to happen unless you take some of the above advice from these techs. These machines are pretty ancient, and we have had a Slew of customers upgrading to newer models (2501, 3055, and such.)

So the question remains. Are you trying to hook up for Printing or Scanning?

Re: Ricoh 2022sp firmware and windows 10

The customer is printing to it now. He will not scan with it.

Thanks you all.
