    Canon imageRUNNER 7086 (B&W, 85ppm) with Saddle Finisher V2 & External RIP

    This beast has been in our back office, running our black and white laser printing needs for about 5 years now. It puts out 85 pages per minute, which is accurate.

    Need Advice re: Printing Student Projects

    I will create a couple of sample files and then craft a carefully worded email to the professors.

    What medium-duty digital press to buy? (Small print shop)

    Shawnd That's good to know. Most of the duplex we run is either "manual duplex" for anything over 30# bond weight or hand-aligned on adobe software. Both are time consuming. I'll be sure to test duplexing on a 100# gloss cardstock and a 24# bond. We can't do a lease right now because the...

    What medium-duty digital press to buy? (Small print shop)

    So our little print shop just got a grant so that we can upgrade our digital press scenario. Wahoo!
