    Konica Minolta IQ-501 worth it?

    We have a C4080 without the IQ-501, with scanner and OC-511 cover as @jwheeler describes above. There have never been any registration issues - it is accurate and consistent. The RU-518m relay unit is great, delivering perfectly flat sheets even with challenging synthetic substrates. Also...

    is the Liz Truss lookalike convincing though?

    Methods for reducing static on Duplo 646

    Have a look at the anti static equipment from Meech International. They came to see us a few years back and demo’d an anti static wand you could fix above the input or output to, in our case a laminator or cutting table. Whist we didn’t buy one, as it’s performance on the laminator (which is...

    Canon v700 OR Konica Minolta C4065

    @tarandeep It would be interesting what criteria you've used to narrow down to those two specific machines. Out of the two, if you are going to be printing onto coated stocks, the KM has the option of the excellent PF-707m air fed paper deck, that alone would make the decision for me. What is...

    Help printing blue prints

    Is it a PDF ? I’ve had multi page PDFs with a “bad page” before and when narrowing it down the offending page was where the page changed orientation.

    Duplo 618 Paper Guides

    If they are the same as on the Duplo Df-1200, I agree they are rather lightweight. The Morgana ones are rather solid, I guess you can buy them as spares.

    How to judge paper quality?

    Probably more info. required for a specific answer, so for starters... Are you listed with any paper merchants? Not sure what the game is like is NZ, however in Europe, the US, Canada, etc, the norm is to be have accounts with one or more paper merchants. In my experience here in the UK, the...

    First Day in Shipping

    @gordo please can we have an alt version, where he labels it "Fragile - This Side Up" then is pictured stamping on the top of each box?

    Recieved an insane quote for Formax ColorMax8 parts

    This sort of thing is why I’ve been wary about these devices. Whilst the demos and versatility of the Memjet head is awesome, all the claims of how cheap each copy is, can be blown out of the water if you have a massive invoice to pay after just over a year. Are there any of the re-badgers...

    Xerox Versant 180 wrinkles in paper

    Welcome, for starters... When did the problem start? Does this only happen on one/all substrates? Does it happen from all paper sources? Is your paper catalogue set up correctly?

    Nobody will give me a service contract for my Versant 180 despite low use & being immaculate.

    I recall asking the same question at the time... linky

    Aqueous Coating

    If the quote specifies an aqueous coating and you have accepted that quote, then there’s no reason for omission. However if it’s not been specified, then the supplier may just give the most cost effective solution, which excludes the coating.

    Morgana Digifold Pro XL vs Multigraf CF375

    We considered both. The CF375 because of good reviews on here and also as we are familiar with the Multigraf feeder, being the same as that on the Vivid Omniflow we have had for four years. However the Morgana Digifold Pro XL demonstration, across a wide range of our own jobs was faultless...

    Identifying High Quality Print Companies

    Recommendations and real reviews, achieved over a period of years. Otherwise it's just noise. "Award Winning" on its own means nothing, unless the award is from a recognised and respected body, is substantiated, reasonably current and the business is still in the same ownership today as when...

    The Job Application

    Depending on how intelligent the AI actually is, simply mentioning the name of the qualification you don't have and thinking about how you structure the words may weight things in your favour.
