    Ricoh Pro c9210 Print Quality Issue

    That sounds bizarre. I've never heard of anything about VOC chemicals in the air. My Ricoh tech sometimes tells us that it's too humid or too hot and that causes issues for us. I'm still having the splotchy issue but it only appears on certain colors such as grays or blues. I played around with...

    Plockmatic PBM5035 RCT Skewing while Cutting

    FIXED! We finally got the backordered part for this from the Ricoh bulletin and that seems to have fixed this issue. It was literally replacing some gaskets that were 5mm thicker than the OEM gaskets on the solenoid. If you run into this issue, have your tech look for this bulletin and get...

    Thank you, I have some 14 mil business cards coming up. I'll give that a try!

    Ricoh Pro c9210 Print Quality Issue

    The 7200 could print the 14mil all day. The C9210 is rated for it. I tried some skilled operator adjustments and that didn't help. Then I decided to delete the paper from my catalog and try one from the paper library and that seemed to do the trick. No splotches now on the 130# gloss cover...

    Ricoh Pro c9210 Print Quality Issue

    I'm having an issue with the color fading on the edge of certain colors. I've mostly noticed it on gray colors and I think I've seen this issue before with my C7200 and we just usually ran the press long enough to "heat it up" and the fading would go away. However that trick doesn't seem to be...

    Plockmatic PBM5035 RCT Skewing while Cutting

    We're still experiencing this skewing issue. My tech and myself have tried almost everything we can think of and he said in his experience the problem should either always happen or never happen. It shouldn't just happen sporadically like it's been doing. I can print 5 booklets and they're...

    Plockmatic PBM5035 RCT Skewing while Cutting

    My tech has been out and we think the plock was pushed too far back somehow and this was causing the sheets from the press to enter the RCT unit at the wrong position. There is a sticker inside that marks where paper should enter and it was off by about a quarter of an inch. He pushed it back...

    Plockmatic PBM5035 RCT Skewing while Cutting

    Thank you for your reply. I normally disable the creaser but sometimes it comes on by default. I'll be sure and check that next time, but I do believe the last magazine I ran, the creaser was off.

    Plockmatic PBM5035 RCT Skewing while Cutting

    Hi all, We have a Ricoh C9210 with a Plock and RCT unit. I'm printing a ton of full bleed magazines on mostly gloss 80# or 100# sheets. We got the new Plock last September and all was running fine until recently. Now everything I run through the RCT is skewing when it's cutting and my magazines...
