We have had our C7000 for almost a year now. A year ago we were reading all of the reviews and did have some concerns regarding the decision. We have very happy with its performance. The color has been extremely consistent and in general the performance has been above our expectations. We have...

We took a variety of jobs to run - a simple booklet (the paper would jam and the order of the pages were wrong). A couple color prints on 300 GSM glossy paper, colours were not even close and lastly a color calendar - again colors were off and the pages came out in the wrong order and it would...

We went through the same evaluation about 6 months ago. Decided on a C7 and the Fiery software. The combination for us is unbelievable - the C7 has delivered great color, amazing interface and we are producing products now that we only wished we could do with the X700. Our demo of the J75 was...

We went through the same process as you are going through. We had a 700 and looked at the C75, J75 and KM's C8000 and C7000. We did not get a very good feeling for either the C75 or the J75, in our tests they just did not do the printing effectively with the Xerox team saying "it will work...

We have had a C7000 for about two months now. We have some setup issues but so far we are very happy. We are moving from a Xerox 700 and their are certainly many improved features going to the Fiery over the Freeflow. We have very little in major failures, colour seems to be brighter than what...

We just received our new KM 7000. Seems good so far but we have not put it to work yet really. We are not happy with the booklets coming out at such a low height. We can't even get a box under it and it jams after a very small number of booklets. Does anyone have a source or know of a supplier...

We are getting close to a deal. KM is telling us to keep the color true on the C7000 we need to add the Relay Unit RU508 but with the IC306 Controller and the graphics Artist package. The technical details on the RU508 indicate its primary function is a de-curler. The local KM office is...

The guides on the internal paper trays. Ours (on the 700) have not broken but we fight with them to get into the right spot. On the C7000 they are metal, not sure they will be good at aligning but they seem to feel better and more of a production machine. As my wife says "New Steel" not plastic...

Wow you sound like you got a great deal. We just got pricing on the J75 and it was nearly 40% more than the KM 7000. Of course the J75 has the inline spectrophotometer so the two are not really comparable. Did they improve some of the plastic things that they were using on the 700. They were...

Great points. We were comparing the KM printing to the Xerox print although the color was significantly different. Our lease is up in August, so it is not worth another war with the Service guys. We had others and have been told that is all they can do. I think both offerings are very good -...

I have read many post about the recommendation on equipment. We are working towards a final decision within a couple weeks. We currently have a Xerox 700 press that we are averaging about 65K clicks per month - approx 15K are 12x18 full color gloss 240 GSM. We have stuggled with supplies and...
