Hello Dean,
I don't know anything about Ricoh device, but I suggest you to look into
setupapi.log file in c:\Windows,
devices install are logged into this file: perhaps you'll find there more
info about the error.
If your device shows errors even in XP retail, don't look more in XPE: check
with onother unit since it could be a failure.
Regards
Raffaele
