Years ago when covid made finding paper hard, I used a HP indigo certified 120# Silk Cover by McCoy and it worked. A few months ago I was having trouble locating the regular 120 silk McCoy so I went with the HP indigo again and got bad results. It was a heavy toner coverage, and toner scraped...

Matt is great

I am not sure if you are considering using their soft touch or matte coatings, but they are a disaster. Before covid they worked just fine, after they changed up their formula and the results are just terrible. Toner reactivates on the back side and melts on to the sheet above it. Also if...

OK

From my experience with this machine, the envelope feeder is the worst designed feeding tray of all time. If you watch their promotional video on the EnPress the guy says you can just load it and step away. I actually LOL'd when he said that.

Service is the most important part of the machine

There is a little hole underneath the beak( hole is on the right side of the metal plate between 2 screws) that adjust the beak. Not 100% sure how it works or functions but adjusting that seems to help me. I will also say the back jogger for the paper absolutely sucks, so I keep my hand...

When fonts give me issues, I find "print to pdf" fixes the problem, however it does change the colors a little bit

My family and coworkers are always telling me I need to do what Dan does... lol no way I have the time. Always appreciated the fact he took the time out of his day to teach us. Dan if you read this, THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH!!! My boss hired me to be a production manager without any experience in...

I always love running the linen/cotton text stocks because of the the smell, I can only imagine what this would make the press room smell like

Use them as our duplo vendor, always excellent service

I have 2 5300s (65 ppm). I only use them for one monthly job that's about 200k impressions all done in a week. I had 2 5110s(85ppm) before hand that were work horses, one of them almost reached 10 million clicks. So far I am really underwhelmed with the 5300 with how much it goes down. I...

I have a different digital press, but I get that same skewing issue with sheets that size. Luckily whenever I have had a job with that size paper, I had plenty of margins on the file to make it unnoticeable. Canon basically told me it is what it is on the issue...

I think an issue you might run into is the special ink you use might stay in the print head after you are done printing the piece you want. So if you have some left over, and replace the specialty red back to magenta, you might end up with some really funky colors. I am not too familiar with...

I have a v900, registration and color/quality are excellent but you will need the sensing unit. Mine has a bookletmaker on it and the booklet maker does give me a good bit of problems, but I believe they just came out with a newer BM to pair with it. Overall I am very happy with the machine...
