$7k is a Reasonable price for that machine. I see you are printing black ink, that is a color printer. Judging by the fact it's a 242, it will be at least 6 years old which means your price per click (the cost Xerox charges for a click) will be very high. I would estimate around $.02 per...

I can only speak for what we have done ourselves in our demo room. What is your stock? (GSM, synthetic-poly?) How is your environment? (temperature, humidity, etc) These factors will affect all print, but especially digital print. I have total confidence doing these tests in front of our...

XC1000 Consistency XC1000 Consistency Hey folks - actual Xerox GC rep here (I never hide who or what I am) When considering the Color Press 800/1000 and the competitive models, here is a fun little test we do in our demo room to really put the questions and doubt to bed. Our customers have...

I am a Xerox direct GC rep and I will tell you honestly - I have not even considered that model since shortly after it's launch a few years back. I did install a 7002 that gave me nothing but grief until November 2010. I learned of the relaunch effort taking place and had my service team...

My honest opinion here. Again, as I always state, I am a Xerox employee, but owned a print shop for 18 years before coming to work here. I owned equipment in my days as a printer from everybody BUT Xerox. There, now that the bias has been revealed... Everything I have seen so far, leads me...

I am a sales rep for Xerox and I have seen with my eyes the glossy appearance that the 800/1000 prints. It is almost identical to the iGen. However, during one of our demos, the creator of this product was present and she quickly showed us an operator could adjust the fuser temperature and...

Please - give me a break! Please - give me a break! Word of caution to the Ricoh C 900 lovers out there. There are 2 in my state (I am a Xerox sales guy) in GA accounts and one is being removed by Ricoh due to a complete lack of performance and the other is on the ropes as well. By the way...

Netrunner, First off - I am a Xerox rep and am not here to blast the Canon in any way shape or form!! I have had extensive experience with the 41XX models and I can tell you first hand, they are monster boxes. I have a customer whose references I can supply who have 2 of them, each running an...

Xerox 800 / 1000 Xerox 800 / 1000 Please do not make the mistake of assuming this is a "baby iGen". The 800/1000 is a brand-new technology, designed from the ground up. While it utilizes many of the great features of the iGen, it also makes use of some of the other printer technology Xerox...

Sorry to let you down, but while we do have some information, we have been non-disclosed. The wait for info will be a bit longer, in the US anyway.

Oh well, life goes on.

Ever heard of an iGen? That's the big Xerox machine you guys try to tell customers that you can outrun with your office copiers.

That is funny!

This is actually very good advice for print companies. Being a Xerox sales rep, sure, I'd like to sell equipment - that's how I get paid afterall! If I encounter an offset shop with no digital today, chances are there numbers have been slipping a bit and they are seeing the need to add digital...

Ah yes, once again, the KM guys just can't resist spreadking their special brand of love! Good morning sunshine - how are you feeling today?? Were you a former Xerox employee or something? Show me any KM product that can run 3.5 million impressions a month on 14" X 22" and actually hit and...
