Ricoh now selling InfoPrint's ProcessDirector?

Ricoh announced something called "TotalFlow". It appears to be a collection of internal and 3rd party solutions. "TotalFlow provides four fundamental document processes for customers: Capture, Manage, Produce, and Innovate. The TotalFlow concept is designed to help manage entire workflows, simplify workflow processes and expand access to a wide range of solutions."

See the Press Release here.

Buried down at the bottom, just before the "About Us" part of the press release, is this little jewel: "Additionally, InfoPrint Solutions Software Advantage, which includes the industry leading workflow solution InfoPrint Process Director, is a component of TotalFlow's open architecture."

Ricoh has InfoPrint's IPDS. Now they look like they are claiming to have the entire array of InfoPrint's software and professional services folks to offer. Ricoh has employees that service work group printers (and InfoPrint does not).

These are interesting days to be both an InfoPrint and a Ricoh reseller! Stay tuned...
