I'll check the menus and see if I can figure out the export and settings. Until then, I definitely want to try the suggestions given to see if I can determine the I don't have the configs exported and the tech wasn't on site today-it was a few weeks ago before the holidays. Ironically, our rep had a meeting here today regarding this printer, and it looks like we're getting a new unit as early as the end of this week or next.

When it gets to the graphic, it may take several minutes to spool on the end-user's computer. a 6MB 2010 Word doc with an image from a Win 7 computer) it will immediate spit out the first, text-only page. No print server (handled locally at the end-user and printer levels)Īnytime a large file is sent to the printer (e.g. Gigabit Network (but Ricoh has 10/100 NIC)
