I would say it was the failed transaction agreement with Fuji that is more to blame, just happened to coincide with the timing of Covid. That failure would have been hampering machine developement in the years up to and after that breakdown.

I see KM have released the latest version of this line of presses https://www.konicaminolta.eu/eu-en/professional-printing/devices/production-printing/accuriopress-c5080 https://www.digitalprintermag.co.uk/news/130230/konica-minolta-enhances-entry-level-press-series/ Not too familiar with...

Heres a video of somone operating it. Interested too to hear us first hand experience on these.

Not related the exact problem but just on googling came across this snippet which I didn't know Sequence Dependence: Adjustments must be performed in a specific order (Image Transfer - Alignment - Density) to be effective.

What stock weight are you using? Above 350gsm is only single sided.

Do you currently have impose on the v180? If so you can transfer it onto another pc. I can't say I've ever heard of someone buying two licences, especially if your a small print shop.

Sorry, I don't think the PX300 has the 2nd BTR, according to Xerox this is replaced on BOTH PX300 and PX500 with the new Bias Transfer Belt https://www.xerox.ca/digital-printing/latest/PX3BR-01C.pdf

I've never heard of the KMs having the 2nd btr issue but I'd get some test prints before you commit. The KMs have a much more gloss finish to it's toner. May not suit your products especially if you're planning on spreading loads between the KM and Xeroxs.

I can't offer a price as other side of the pond but as per others who have it seems you're in the right ball park with your revised quote. Unfortunately it looks like you're negotiating at just the wrong time as they have marketing costs under the microscope and it's a sizeable increase. I'd...

Maybe more on the expensive side but Tintoretto would be worth a look. https://specialpapers.fedrigoni.com/serie/tintoretto/

Just a note for those who change 2nd BTR themselves on v280. Talking to tech recently and they said it's just been recommended the counter be reset when replacing the 2nd BTR on the V280, not something that needed doing previously. Apparently the machine adjusts voltages based on the counter...
