We'll after the first year we managed to put 5.23 million on the Ricoh and it has held up well! So I would say if anyone had doubts about the MP series it seems to be performing quite well.
The only down fall would be the span between PM's is short about 750,000, and they could use a little more metal in the duplex area. The duplex tray has had to be changed at about 2.5 million.
For fast plastic I would give this one a 9 out of 10 for productivity.

wow, that's impressive for the history of those machines. Good to hear positive info on these as I have only heard negatives from their competition. (Go figure)
wow. that is great. what type of impressions do you typically put on the device (size, stock, etc.). is most of your work duplexed?

About 85% is duplexed 8.5x11, the majority of the stock is 60lb Lynx. We print a lot of halftones and solids, most of the prints are 30 to 40% coverage.
