    Richo Pro C550EX and C700EX

    This is also wrong-both Canon and KonicaMinolta are above if you take installed base in production environments from engines over 30 ppm and and above installed last 5 years. If you look in the ultra segments HP is the leader so Xerox is not the overall leader, but in a few segments they are and...

    Richo Pro C550EX and C700EX

    Yes it is very important to support us companies and their stockholders. And if possible try to get a couple of big us cars included in the lease also. This is rubbish - if a Ricoh engine is within your spec go for it. Ricoh is today the largest vendor in the us market and that is maybe a answer...

    Test Igen compared to docucolor 260

    Hello Its quite fun to see all the Xerox disciples in the forum have some problems to answer this question. Igen3 and 4 is for the most of the xerox hurdle so close to heaven many of them will come in this life and even try to compare this with a low end low life machine as 260 is like cursing...

    I bought a KM6501 in Dec and now need second machine

    C900 speed C900 speed Yes - it is correct that the engine speed can be faster than rated 90. Because of necessary speed reduction in the fuser unit C900 slows down up to 3%, but it will always give you a minimum of 90 ppm or 45 ppm. When it comes to print quality the target for this engine was...

    Poll: Prepress preference; RGB vs. CMYK

    I really cant see the problems because both environments need to understand each others. From a designers perspective its much more easy to stay in RGB modus when they work with photos/illustrations, then they only have three channels to work with and all files they works with are...

    Xerox 700 vs. Canon C6000

    Holy shit - this is just like talking to Jehovas witnesses. I just said if you want to produce that amount each month you are far away from the spec sheet or CED and I am not the only one saying that. Also Xerox says the same and to make sure you understand it, you must sign a document. If you...

    Xerox 700 vs. Canon C6000

    Of course it is a issue, just read the papers. To print 75,000 12x18 monthly on this engine is far away what it is made for and thats why you have to read and sign the CED document (after you have bought it). And it is not up to the customer choice to decide what is a digital press or not, if...

    Xerox 700 vs. Canon C6000

    XEROX 700 is not a production engine XEROX 700 is not a production engine Agh -first of all. Xerox 700 is not a digital color press,its a pretty normal printer with fancy finishing equipment. To compare this engine with IP6000 and other in the light production segment is just stupid. It has a...

    Difference between LED and LASER imaging

    Great answer!! Bits and bytes is always marketing stuff, look behind it and find out what the facts(results) are. And laser or LED is only the half of what quality you can expect. My advise is always to also take a closer look at the controllers/RIP´s because you will need a lot of power if you...
