    Fujifilm adds two more production models to the UK market

    Seems to have similar specs and features as V280 for example ...... but I'm seeing optional upgrade mentioned alot. Looks like these two models are direct competitors to the V4100 and V280. So far I'm impressed with how fast they're entering the market, I expected it to be slower. Hopefully...

    Xerox V80 NCR marking Transfer Belt

    Hi, Running NCR on our V80 for the last 5 years and the last two times its damaged the transfer belt which is causing this mark. The first time it happened I'd took Xeroxs advice and put in a very old 2nd BTR to preserve my good one, something I'd never bothered with before. It marked like this...

    Static build up within machine causing registration movement

    Hi, Have a Versant 80. Running into a problem with 130gsm gloss. It seems the machine is building up static and causing the backup to swing. It builds up gradually so first 100 / 200 sheets would be perfect and then you'd see the back going 1mm out and slowly getting worse and worse until the...

    Standalone Creaser or Creaser/Slitter/Cutter

    Our standalone creaser (Morgana Autocreaser) needs a new motherboard and given it's age I really think it's best to retire it. I can get an used newer Morgana Autocreaser for decent money but I'm wondering would I be able to just get a Creaser/Slitter/Cutter (SCC) instead for a few k more...

    Xerox (Versant) 2nd BTR streaking marks work around

    Hi, This topic crops up alot on here amongst Versant owners (my V80 being on of them). Just thought I'd share my workaround. Problem - 2nd Btr creates drag lines from waste toner. Occurs mainly on coated stocks and results in 2nd Btr needing to be constantly replaced way before its due. More...

    Sleeking Queries
