Yes I have been using the OKi version of this machine (c9800)for the last 5 years. It prints well but a few pointers to be aware of. The toner cartridges are very expensive (approx £900 per rainbow set) and I have never sorted the fact that my machine prints a fraction out of square. The OKi...

On this theme I was offered a job approx 15 years ago in Hong Kong and I was informed that there the circulation was increasing year on year due to more & more of the citizens becoming literate. Having said that no matter how you look at it newspapers are old technology and the same will happen...

Thanks for all your help chaps but I think I may have found the problem. On real close inspection today I found the actual connecter on the PC end the acts as the workflow is loose. I will have to get it fixed at a PC repair shop & hopefully this is what all the aggro has been about.

Avoid if I was you. I have just retired from the newspaper industry and it is in a big decline. No one buys newspapers now so the Newspaper industry is really struggling.

Tried this but no joy

Sorry but I am not that good with this IT stuff. What is PS & PCL and how do I do it.

Thanks but how do I do that. I think you might be on the right track as the job does not spool.

Has anyone had register or printing out of square issues with a Oki 9800. On close inspection the yellow is not in perfect register with the other colours. I have fitted a new drive belt but still no improvement. It is not a big miss register and know complaints so far but I know it is not...

I have been using a OKI 9800 for a couple of years producing short run work i.e bus cards etc. However the spec for thickness is a max of 280gsm and I have ran 320gsm with no notable issues. However is there a conversation kit so I can run much thicker stock. I have looked at the Zanti machines...

Printed some letterheads for a company,. However they are complaining that the image is coming off when they put them through a laser printer. Is this a common problem with digital printing and if so is there a answer.

Over Qualified Had the same issue some 13 yrs. ago. I changed my CV and found a job at the bottom (reel-stand operative). Now a Prod manager with the same company. Unfortunately being interviewed by managers who have less qualifications or less experience are under threat and will not employ...

tinting tinting I had this once and I found that the magenta fount tank had contamination. I think it was spirit and cleaned it out and the problem went. It also could be slight emulsification and the damping system is doing its job but it gradually buids up on rear edge of the plate and...
