TSRC Tech Forum

[Shadow1]

There have already been cases where postings for a suggestion for a "physical" change to resolve a problem have been "edited' by moderators . The edit was politely stated, saying that the suggestion would be review by Ricoh and published if proved worthwhile. I think such actions are to be expected.

Yeah, it was my post that was the first to be deleted. I reposted (with permission) df3036's mod to get rid of that ridiculous web design on the MP5000's. I wanted to see how long it would stay up before the mods killed it... Less than 1 business day.

There is a lot of good information sharing on there, but if we can't post stuff that works in the field it limits the usefulness

I understand your point. I'm glad that this forum is so well attended with intelligent techs with innovative thoughts such as yours. The one benefit of the TSRC forum is the interaction with Ricoh employees who, hopefully, have some input from those with more information that we're privy to.

I was actually kind of hoping the engineers would pay more attention to Ricoh's own forum - they certainly don't seem to pay any notice to this one.

Having a Ricoh "genuine" forum it's a very positive thing. I'm pretty sure that the "genuine" forum it's a reaction to Copytechnet forum that became pretty famous and well known

I think this is a reaction to a Ricoh run forum that has been running in the UK for the last 6 months.

Yeah i use that real handy and has quite a few documents and downloads (loads of Equitrac) are cant find anywhere else as a UK based Tech. But you need both the offcial websites for info only the companies have and independents like this for the stuff no company is gonna allow to be on their forums for commercial reasons.

Im not sure sorry, maybe your local Ricoh Company will have a website? I guess you can always apply and see what happens

If you're formally trained on ANY Ricoh product, you can request a tech ID from the TSRC center. You might even be able to request one if you're not trained - not sure how closely they check...
