Creo Dolev 4 Press

[PACH]

The fumes coming from the On Line Processor interact with the rubber of the rollers therefore making them spongy as time goes by. This is why these rollers last longer when the Dolev is used off line.

True.
Also eceteknik made his point about regular servicing I've seen problems with traverse carriage unable to home, a powermax stepper motor seized which I had to replace; difficult film loading, eject errors a.s.o.

We ran the same imagesetter for years to a processor and constantly had problems. Our solution, disconnect the bridge to the processor and run to a cassette. Worked great, and solved our roller problems. If you are experiencing this alot like we were, it only takes a few more minutes to remove the cassette and place it into the processor and saves alot of headache.

Thank you so much! I was having issues with the rollers again and used your suggestion to disconnect the bridge at this time, what a relief! It sounded like it would be complicated, but not at all- I had never used the cassette, and it is a lifesaver! Thank you again!

Several years ago we to had 2 dolev 4 press imagesetters. The #1 thing that kept them working was disconnecting the bridge and using the cassettes only. After we did that our service calls dropped way off. These machines have always been unreliable but this solution sure helped us. Good luck.

A friend if mine is no longer using his Dolev 4 Press. He has gone CTP. I don't know a lot about prepress. What kind of reputation does the machine have? He asked me if I wanted to sell it for him. Is it worth anything?
Thanks

Dont waste your money. One of the worst imagesetters ever. When we had ours the service tech was almost one of our employees he was here working on the machine that much. By the way, Creo techs arent cheap!!

If somebody already has a D4Prees, I think it is a good buy for SPARES. By the way there are no more CREO technicians (2005), they are now all Kodak for a while, and I do not think that there are many out there that they are conversant with the 4Press.
