Advantages: Price and Speed Disadvantages: Support Documentations
With the SP C222DN, Ricoh has entered the market of low cost color laser printers. However with the cutting of post, the quality has also gone down. The print performs decently but not up to the mark.
The problems start as soon as you begin the installation process. There is a huge guide which has all the necessary details. The instructions are pretty clear. At first, you are asked to move to the -'Software Installation guide' for network connection.
You are supposed to get the next set of instructions here, however these instructions are difficult to understand and inadequate. Some very important steps and key points are missing. Along with the printer, you get a CD which contains details about the USB installation. This make things tough as the USB details are only in the CD and thus not easily available. The remaining documents ...
Advantages: ... it's a fax machine Disadvantages: EVERYTHING
I warn my readers that this could be a raging review since I just threw this fax machine into the bin.
Not only it costed me more than £30 two years ago but for the little times I've needed it it hardly worked properly. This morning I was trying to send a fax and the paper kept jamming into the rolls... but let's proceed in order.
This Olivetti Fax-Lab is one of those product that you always see in offer (and for a reason), a couple of years ago they costed even up to £60-£70 but I found mine with a 40% discount so, since I often needed to fax documents and stuff like that, I bought it without second thoughts
Later on I found out that I didn't need to fax documents SO often to justify purchasing a fax machine but still, it has been useful sometimes. But most of the times it was dreadful (read problems later on)
THE MACHINE ...
Advantages: Economic when bought, great intro to SLR Disadvantages: Outdated now
for constant battery charging and replacing that make digitals annoying when you spot something that demands a photograph right away.
I've used all kinds of 35mm film in the Ricoh and have a preference for bulk Ektachrome, rolled on in small quantities.
Producing one's own slides from such film in a little developing tank, gives an insight to the photographic process that is a learning curve all of its own.
The camera is heavy by modern standards - but just convince yourself that weight is quality in this type of situation.!
It has the usual facility for tripods, and flash, and all the range of colour and special effects filters.
This is the system that allows for real creativity - not just standard digital alteration.
I use the digital snappers very happily - see review on FujiPix 610 - but that Ricoh was photography as real art.! ...
