    RAMPAGE The Last Version

    We have the last/latest Version....right before Fuji absorbed them, (13.0 I believe) Of Rampage that we are taking out of commission today due to an install of a new Platsetter that Rampage will not drive. If anyone is in need of a Rampage Box that is still running flawlessly, throw me an offer...

    Ricoh 9100: Slip Sheets and Speed

    If you insert blank after last page using the exact same paper settings there should be no noticeable slowdown at all as gregbatch mentioned above. I only want to hang myself when truly running mixed media on the 9100, its like watching paint dry

    The floppy

    Zips were a gift from God when they came out. Was always having to get files over to the Service Bureau's to get film output and it sure made file portability a cinch........ahhhhhhhh the good ole days

    The floppy

    Just found it humorous since I haven't seen one of those since the late 90's (at least that's what it feels like)

    The floppy

    Just had someone bring in a 5.25 Floppy to retrieve their artwork :eek: Not quite sure where to stick it. That's a blast from the past

    Ricoh C9110 recommendations

    Yes the 9100 Does struggle quite badly with screens of black when used on color pages but does fine if only printing black and white which is kind of odd but it is what it is. I usually convert Black Screens to either a close PMS color or a process build in PisStop and they print beautiful but...

    MGI Meteor Unlimited Color Press

    No I didn't. The price came back Waaaaaaay more than the rep told us it would be which pretty much cooked any interest we had in it

    Should I buy my own equipment?

    Agree with Socket.... Best case Scenario you pick up a digital and pay 4 Cent Clicks (depending on your deal) You can run 4 on 12 x 18 or 13 x 19 = $600 Click Charge. Rough guess would be at $100/M on your Stock (depending on your region) That's $1500. Just those 2 numbers already put you at...

    Paper - Let's Solve This Together

    We have had major increases across the board and were told that for our region, many factors are contributing to it. 1st was that a couple major mills shut down and the second was anybody west of the Rockies were going to see increases due to the lack of truck drivers and skyrocketing freight...

    Chipping in Bindery

    So everything mentioned here so far has been tried to no avail. Just chocking it up to "whatever can go, will go wrong" on this one. Ricoh production facility said they had no issues whatsoever but threw the samples away rather than sending them back to us to see so we just moved forward with...

    Chipping in Bindery

    Chipping in Bindery

    Don't go out of your way but I do appreciate it. I run a ton of 100# Accent Cover with no issues ever. This is by far the weirdest thing I have ever seen. This problem has now been escalated to Ricoh Engineering so I am just waiting to hear back with the ever looming deadline drawing closer day...

    Chipping in Bindery

    It does not scratch off at all. The toner adhesion is Fantastic and I have changed temps up/down, process speed as slow as she can go and Nip way down and I always get the exact same result. My Tech boxed some up to send to the facility where Ricoh does all of the trouble shooting. I was told...

    TPMAR.... Have you ran any 120/130 LB Accent Opaque Cover with Extreme Coverage both sides?? and are you Guillotine Cutting everything? The frustrating part is if we die cut, Punch, run through our ST-90 Collater Trimmer it doesn't do it
