I had a ricoh hooked at one point in Primary Health in Boise Idaho.
There is something that needs to be set off in the printer configuration
file in pub sys. I cannot remember the setting.

The printer worked fine. If someone could post all those parameters.
I might remember.

The Ricohs probably don't support SNMP, or at least MPEs opinion of what
SNMP should provide. So you want to add "snmp_enabled = FALSE" to the
NPCONFIG entry.

Another possibility (depending on your environment) is that the Ricohs
are set for chargeback / billing and require a billing code. This can
be provided with their windows drivers and certain linux/cups
configurations, but MPE doesn't have a clue. We had issues with this on
our 3000 and the campus (outsourced) copy center. If that bit is
disabled in the printer, it works fine; unfortunately, I don't know the
details of exactly how that all works (not my printers :-) ).
