    Thermal bind book cooling rack?

    I'm not sure what they're called, but we had them when I worked at Kinko's forever ago. This might do the job though.

    Are you using a hotfolder, or the print driver?

    Print Quality Issue on Ricoh C5100s

    I've seen similar issues on my canon. I found this PDF that might help. Look around for "trailing edge" for adjustments you can make.

    Riso ComColor Linux Drivers

    I highly doubt there's an official Linux driver for a production printer. Maybe Mac if you're super against Windows.

    Recieved an insane quote for Formax ColorMax8 parts

    Whoa, I always assumed it would cause issues going flap last. You just made my day!

    Recieved an insane quote for Formax ColorMax8 parts

    I find for some reason envelopes tend to print straighter if I run them with the flap towards me. I also rarely have much luck feeding them from the short edge so I generally run everything lengthwise. It takes longer, but it's worth it to avoid the misfeeds and doubles.

    Recieved an insane quote for Formax ColorMax8 parts

    Yeah, we have the Ijetcolor NXT. As far as I can tell they all use the same feeder and print module and the only difference is the output and a coat of paint. Did you buy it used? We've had ours for about 2 years and I haven't had any need for any of those supplies. I usually just give the...

    Canon Prisma Prepare Issues

    No issues on my end. We're on version 7.2 though, which I think is fairly old. I'd reach out to support, or your salesperson to put you in contact with someone. Maybe it just needs an update or something.

    Is Antivirus Software Still Needed?

    In my opinion, no. Windows Defender works fine, plus Windows is more "stupid proof" when it comes to accidentally installing malicious software. On top of that, if something is malicious enough to get past both of those Norton isn't going to catch it either.

    Understanding Color Calibration Process - I feel stupid - what am I missing?

    I know the PRISMASync controllers have G7 profiling built in. I'm sure the Fiery does as well. I also know if you want to go hardcore into it you can print media wedges and scan them to verify, but we've never taken it that far. We were told to do auto gradation daily, shading correction...

    You can contact your paper supplier and have them test the stock to see if it really is the issue.

    Canon V1000 - Anyone have one? How is it going?

    Ugh, I wish you luck, but our ImagePress 10000 also has that stupid top/bottom density issue, and it's never been fully resolved. In my opinion, Canon is going too hard on inkjet, and their toner machines are taking a backseat to it. We're in the SF Bay Area, and a lot of the techs aren't even...

    Versant 280 Registration

    That's what Canon does on their equipment. I'm not sure why it's not common in other vendors.

    Ricoh Tech Conversation Today...

    Techs typically have no idea what they're talking about outside of the physical machine. He's probably going by something he heard in 2002 and thinks it's still relevant. That's not a knock on techs, it's just not part of their training.
