    Upgrading to a Canon V700

    That is what we used to do - now we export a pdf and either drop onto Command Workstation or export directly to the hot folder.

    Upgrading to a Canon V700

    Well, it took a while to turn up, very much expected in these topsy-turvy times. But Canon stepped-up by providing an office machine so we could at least print some emails. When the machine finally arrived, the delivery company smashed up the POD deck and it was determined that they should pay...

    Upgrading to a Canon V700

    The V700-900 are a new range of Imagepress machines - it sounds like you have an older Canon (750) - is this an Imagerunner Advance or similar? If so - yes, I agree the jobs would go out of register quite quickly, even with the POD deck - which we have. Also colour drifts in and out throughout a...

    Upgrading to a Canon V700

    BCR - you gave me serious food for thought. We are a small printing company, 2nd generation family run our first digital "Press" was an OKI - which gave us a taste of what was possible - the consumables cost killed that machine so we moved to a Xerox DC3535 - another terrible mistake driven by...

    Upgrading to a Canon V700

    Hi folks, I'm close to pushing the buy button on the Imagepress v700 - Previously we had an Imagerunner Advance 7065i - for the last 10 years. I can't say it was a great machine - registration - awful, colour - great, then awful after a few sheets, Paper handling - not bad then awful. The one...

    Poor Britney...not enough paper to print her autobiography

    I have 4 pallets of A3 90gm - willing to print a 24pp A4 biography single colour throughout and saddle-stitched for cash.

    Price Competition

    LOL - we used to do the same thing - except we didn't charge - people were grabbing piles of them!

    Greys Are Yellow-ish

    I'm surprised the calibration didn't sort out your problem - maybe as a stopgap you could try modifying the grey in the artwork to a black percentage which is close to the grey you need until it is recalibrated correctly? I have had to use little tricks like that to obtain corporate greys on our...

    Computer To Plate Machines For India

    Hi Dhanu I saw this CTP at the Ipex show in UK last year - very impressive, but it seemed quite expensive. Mitsubishi Paper Also consider a cheaper option using novadom (indian) plates on a Xante Platemaker or similar Best of Luck

    New 700 arrived today!

    Sounds like your in N.Ireland? - Don't worry, I'm a fellow Xerox user - just curious to know how things are going with your Danwood experience. I wouldn't touch them with a barge pole.

    Vim ctp

    Thanks Bill - I'm trying to do my research, it's easy to rush into these things impressed by the smoke and mirrors. I have been burned before and will be more careful in the future.

    Vim ctp

    Ahoy my fellow printers. I have been reading these forums for a few years now, but until now haven't posted any comments. My print business is at a crossroads, we have been happily printing away with a couple of ryobi type presses (ad Itek and an ABdick) and a xerox to cover our short run colour...
