Ricoh c901s

[ProC900Man]

I have been running 2 Pro C901's for three months daily and both units are about 30K off their first 400K PM cycle. Neither machine has required service and we have not replaced any of the parts in the ORU kit. The C901 seems to just keep going...

Greetings.
Can we upgrade Konica Minolta c6000 to c7000 or c8000. Thanks.

Wow, the 900 has been out for about 5 minutes. As an owner I would hope the mods are retrofit!

If you have too much money wanna throw into the sea, go for Ricoh 901; If you really want to run your printing business KM C7000 or C8000 is the right choise!

Could you please explain your statement? We tested the 7000 and the 901, and saw many differences between them. In my opinion, this is not a matter of cost, but of what you are going to print. Those two printers has been developed to different markets needs. For ours, we need a 901.

Same with us, we chose the 901 instead. Very satisfied with this machine.

Anyone upgrade from a C900 to a 901? We have had a 900 for almost 2 years & aren't as pleases as one would hope with it. I have seen the C901 but I couldn't see THAT much of a difference between the 2, other than the obvious lack of fuser oil. My question is, how much better is it really? Is there less down time?

Just a quick update on our ongoing 901 issues. It would seem that after a teleconference with techs around the US and Ricoh people in Japan that most 901's are experiencing the same issues as we are having. They decided to change out the Cyan and Magenta developer units to see if that would make a difference with our solids. Same result, solids in both colors extremely bad. Well it now seems that Ricoh/Japan is acknowledging that there is indeed a problem with the solid reproduction in these two units and are currently working on a fix. I will continue to keep you posted on the ongoing solid issue. Good machine if they can get the 2 units printing correctly. As I have stated before, this machine is a work horse. It will eat almost anything you run thru it.

I would take a good look at the Ricoh c651 and c751.They are a very solid machine.
