Oh, I thought that Ikon was the company that sold canons, good to know thanks.

Wow, thanks for the response that was really helpful, as far as what kinda of work I could get, it will be mostly binders with tabs and a mix of color and B/W. I've been researching used machines and either way its going to be a huge outlay of cash. As a result outsourcing is the only way Im...

Hey Daniel, so which models would you recommend and which models are you using? What are you paying for them as far as monthly service plus click rate? I heard that Ricoh or someone bought out Canon and the service is in a disarray have you noticed anything in regards to this? I've been...

Hey gohdan, so who would you suggest other then xerox?

Ok, the WC76xx series is looking good to start out with cost to purchase wise, I know I know its more expensive per click but thats what my budget is dictating right now. If business goes well Id like to get a xerox 4112 and a 5000ap in the future...both used of course. By the way I love...

tried calling you tried calling you Hey Din, thanks for leaving me your number, I tried calling you but the girl at your shop says that you leave really early. I dont get off of work til 330pm so I guess ill try you on my break.

Ive looked online for used printers, namely xerox machines and I am having a hard time finding any. Does anyone know where on the web to look for used machines like a 41xx series b/w or a dc 5000?

What are those? What are those? As for actual printing, use a gang printer like 4Over or Growl, a lot cheaper than anything you can make with a copier and a lot better quality. Jose Barrios ColorBox Printing Hey Jose, what's a gang printer "40ver or growl"?

Oh so that explains the "per click" metrics, more clicks equals more consumption. The light is slowly getting brighter:D. I went to American printers website and started some more data mining its helping me sort out the differences between inks, toners and oil and their applications. Thanks...

ok keith, great info, you mentioned renting your first printers for 50$ each and paying .15/.01 cents per click. Is the service contract included in those fees or is that another fee altogether?

Ketih, thank you for the reply. Office printers huh... sounds good, you mentioned toshiba and sharp who else would be considered best bang for buck? If you had to do it all over again what would you have done differently? By this, I mean which machines/mfgs would you have used for...

good to know good to know Thanks UnlimitedBT, that information was very helpful, Im in the silicon valley here in Northern California and I am trying to find out which dealers are out here. Im in total agreement that purchase cost is not as important as operating costs and ultimately that...

thank you all thank you all Thanks X33, ive been reading different posts on this webiste (digital printing discussion) and xerox 700 isnt as favored as the 252. As far as the 41xx series it seems to be a favorite in the b/w arena. Milo wilson mentioned getting a used machine with a...

In regards to fedexkinkos as a threat or a leviathan that cannot be destroyed, it is not my intention to do so however it is no secret that fedex bought kinkos for their store locations and NOT for their print business. Being a tradesman who has completed an apprenticeship I wholly recognize...

I was thinking on a monthly basis of 50k to 100k of volume of color and b/w. Obviously that might be optimistic but id rather have the equipment that could scale the demand should it ramp up. I love the feedback but does any one have preferences as far as printer mfgs are concerned?
