We don't have a Stahl, but my Baum 20/20 has the same code for your red emergency stop button is engaged. Check you stops, we have 2 on our folder

Just as Bill said, we use our horizon knife folder. Set up the hand feed unit and it folds nearly as fast as you can feed them, and looks great. We have a job of 1200 we do once a month.

Sent a shiver up my spine with how close this sounds to my shop

If it's anything like our Challenge, which I had the same problem as you at first.... there is a diagnostic/ service mode. You should be able to enter into that and reset your knife change, cut count and lube warnings to zero. If you have your users manual, it should show the steps, mine did.

As a press operator for 25 years AND bindery guy.....ya better hope the answer to your duplo feeding problem is a tricky one - not a 'can't believe i didn't think of that' one. (and doesn't read this forum) ;) Anyhow, I agree with RGPW, 20lb isn't the easiest to set up for doubles detection...

Purchased directly from Neopost. Getting a service tech here is not a problem, he's here frequently. "The machine should never need a tank replacement at 20-30% left". Lol...indeed. We have been informed by the technician that this is to ensure that the tank does not run out, which causes all...

The "boss" thought it would replace our offset/envelope printer because we do a fair amount of variable data on envelopes. I agree with everyone here that says the quality is poor. If the envelope gets a microscopic drop of water...it runs. The ink is pretty spendy, and it will not run when...

No problem, you'd be surprised at how inexpensive a good used 3302 would cost you. Good luck!

I work in a large school district, and we have Ryobi 3302 2 color with a Kompac, and an ABDick 9970. In my opinion the Ryobi is a MUCH better built press. We can run anything that the 9970 will run on the 3302, and the 2-4 color as well. The ABDick has had a lot of work done on it, and we're...

Fairly large School District

We had an old DPM that was driving us crazy with lines on the plates. It turned out to be scratches on the metal inside the processor as the plate was being guided through the developer....that's where I would start.

LOL...I know EXACTLY what you're saying. My manager (1.5 years in the biz) is meeting with our copier vendor as i'm typing to discuss configuration and component choices. Considering we do 25 million + per year on 6 1107's, you'd think the production coordinator would be involved.

Here's a good reason NOT to sign an 84 month lease.....you're stuck with it for 84 months. What if you find the copier doesn't fit your needs 3-4 years into the lease? Technology is changing so rapidly, it's crazy to sign up for something that will be 'old' in just a couple years. They may...

Stephen King: Dark Tower book VI

The only banding issues I have heard about are with the C651 and the C751. That has since been resolved...from what I hear. I went and checked out a C651 machine that was in a production environment and the operator stated he had no problems with this. Guess we'll find out, we're getting a...
