Looks like your well covered on this one if DYP is helping you out however, I just wanted to ask a couple questions. -Are you positive you are running short-grain meaning the grain of the paper is parallel to the lead edge of the sheet? -Also when you run your test are you running one sheet...

Nice job Shawnd on the video. That will help many I'm thinking...

I have to say, the 9200 is one of the most color stable machines I have had my hands on. Weird to hear that.

Not sure but here is the manual that talks about using it on knife changes in case you are missing the manual. Hope it helps!

Your right Richardson that's what it is however, if he needs to register I would not do that. That has screwed me in the past. Here are the setting on the 7100 however again, due to firmware updates the numbers may have changed. 013: Deactivate Image Adj to On 014: Skew Detection to Off Good...

Again what are the specs of the media? So see if you can find in the paper catalog entry for this paper, maybe #120, Illumination Mode for Color Paper. Set this to "Long Time" Problem is through firmware updates they have worded stuff differently and added/removed options so let me know if you...

It's not returning a code at all? J or SC? What are the specs of the paper and are you trying to duplex?

Iceprinter in your paper cat setting for this paper go to Ppr Edge Detection and set that to 10. That should do it if you know for sure your not pulling dbls. When it rejects what code is being displayed in the control panel? Good Luck Also one other thing is go to the "Special" or 5th unit...

Okay is there any way you can post a picture of the box under the counter as well as the lever you say is for heavy and light pressure? I think if it is the knob I am thinking of it is actually the position of the brush which you can change the pressure of. Changing the pressure of the cylinder...

So Stinger if you don't mind me asking when was the last time this press has had a once over by someone. I suspect their is something else going on however it sounds like you have found a better way or at least be a bit more cautious as far as packing and what to shoot for. So has the bed been...

Hi Stinger, So this is what I personally would do. Use however much packing to get the jacket to bearer height. The bottom of the bed (regardless if there is packing under the plate or not) to the bearer height should be type high, .918 Now with brand new cut rule build your chase so you...

So a couple things comes to mind (keep in mind I ran several cylinder presses but it was a couple decades ago so hopefully I recall correctly). One is inserting the packing and the method you use to roll up the jacket onto the cylinder. What I mean is, the way I did it was I would hang the...

No issues to report, parts or consumables (West Coast). Ricoh 8210 / 9200

I just want to throw this out there, there have been a lot of Mods that have come out for the 9100. So it would be good to find out if those were installed or not. Not all directly deal with this issue but doesn't matter. If you have a service contract you should push to get those on the machine.

This one really has me confused so FYI I went ahead and got with a Ricoh tech who is a really good friend of mine and is a REALLY great tech but, I sent him the image you posted, the Gracol test sheet, and talked with him about it. See if his response applies to you or if you have heard this...
