    Ok ill preface this with I have exactly 0 experience with wide format printing other than ordering some prints from a local shop when our customers need something like that. I am thinking of getting a wide format printer to be able to do photographic quality pictures and posters for a...

    Xerox 700i for Sale in Los Angeles $1500

    Well considering @Ynot_UK has been a respected member of this community for years and your this new Joe Blow who is spouting off garbage about an obsolete machine, the forum has their back. Btw, you’re probably going to have to pay someone to remove that machine. It’s about as useful now as the...

    What your recent equipment deal you've gotten?

    I saw that system add on. Looked amazing. If we did more spiral binding I’d consider it. We have 1 huge job a year and outsource it. It cost me less to buy the Rhin-O-tuff for this job at $500 than it would to outsource it. It was a deal I couldn’t pass up. The thing is a beast too.

    What your recent equipment deal you've gotten?

    I mainly just started this to brag that I recently picked up a Rhin-O-Tuff HD7700 Punch machine for coil binding. We had a large coil job coming up and with outsourcing I didnt think we would get it done in time. Hopped on trusty FB Marketplace and about 3 hours from me a guy had the punch for...

    Xerox Booklet Maker Not Jogging Well

    Is it the cover sheet that’s different? If so you can actually change the cover trim width in the nvm settings. Could be it’s slightly off. If that’s what you think it might be I can give you the nvm number for our 3100 tomorrow and you can see if it’s the same for your 280.

    Sterling Digibinder Super Nipper trouble.

    we have a digibinder as well. I’m wondering if an air hose has maybe became disconnected? I believe the machine is driven by air and the nipper is as well. So maybe the hose is disconnected and that’s why it is not engaging? Just the first thought that came to mind since everything else is running.

    Cutter/Guillotine Blade Sharpening

    Here is what I went with. I chose it because our blades are only 24" total and it would hold it thickness and allow the arm to swing to each end. I watched a youtube video on a guy using a similar system to sharpen a guillotine blade so I figured for $50 I could see if its something that we...

    Cutter/Guillotine Blade Sharpening

    I definitely agree with you about the blade not being where it should be. I have some blades on hand that we are using for cutting while I figure out the sharpening. I also sent a few blades back to our old shop to see how they come back without saying anything to them. It could have been a...

    Cutter/Guillotine Blade Sharpening

    I actually purchased a blade sharpening system over the weekend and went to town on one of our blades. I was able to put a sharper edge on it than the current company did but its still not quite where I want it to be. but I believe with some more practice and elbow grease I can get a fully sharp...

    Ok fellas I am in search of someplace, preferably in southern Indiana but understand ill most likely have to ship, to sharpen my cutter blades. We have been using a local company for the last few years that has always done a pretty good job. I wont say stellar but they've always gotten the job...

    Need equipment advise

    The calls are sooooo annoying. When they call I just ask them what the due date is. When they tell me the date I ask them if it’s that date yet. They say no so I tell them that’s their answer lol

We do have a Challenge 20 cutter that we use often and wanted to put the microcut on it. I contacted microcut and they said it was compatible and to...
