I just had Versant drums and toner ship without dealer escalation.

We have not tried Affinity's products.

I'm at a similar decision point and I'm underwhelmed by Xerox and their supply chain incompetence. Ricoh 9200 is current my top candidate and has similar specs to the Iridesse at a substantially lower price, but without specialty colors that I don't need. The specialty colors require a...

Duplo 646 here and I've had a lot of false double feeds with 350gsm and I have been unable to crease that thickness, at least for coated media.

https://www.usa.canon.com/internet/portal/us/home/products/details/production-printing/color-sheetfed-digital-presses/imagepress-v1000 There aren't a lot of specifications released, but it looks like a competitor to the Xerox Versant 280 and Ricoh 7200.

We've had a couple sales reps look at our current volumes and tell us that the Ricoh 9200/KM 12000 are "overkill". I was recently told that we would have to prove that we'd have enough volume to be *permitted* to purchase a 9200 or Iridesse. I'm suspicious that it is a tactic to spike the price...

WCP Solutions and Kelly Paper on the west coast are worth a call if the shipping isn't a concern.

Interesting. What machines were you quoting? What is your location?

x-Digital in California is a Xerox refurbisher who probably has access to Xerox firmware. You might ask them if they could help you for a consulting fee.

Your Duplo 618 should allow micro adjustments to get the print assets right on the folds, but you have to start with an accurate file and tight front to back registration. My setup is almost the same as yours- Duplo 646 and V3100.

Thanks. Where are you located?

Thanks. I'm planning to be shopping a Ricoh 9200, Xerox Iridesse, or Cannon C10010 this summer.

Thanks. Where are are you located?

To attempt to clean the heads: 1) initiate a knife change and open the cover. The knife change will unlock the head so that you can move it. 2) soak a lint free rag with windex and put it under the head and let it sit for a few hours and then run a heavy cleaning. See if that improves your print...

Make sure you get a Fiery RIP for color management. The V180 has supply problems. I don't know of the primelink series does.

If enough piezos fail it may not be possible to repair. Compass Micro or Solvent Inkjet may be able to sell you a replacement and provide diagnostic guidance. signs101.com worth searching and asking for help if this forum doesn't get you the right answer.

I don't have this issue with my V3100 running NCR branded media at a few thousand to 10,000 sheets per month.

signs101.com is a good resource for wide format situational awareness. I have not had major issues getting wide format vinyl from Grimco, but I'm a really small shop.

Try WCP out of Seattle. They have been doing an ok job of having SKUs that I need.

The toner cartridges are different, but the drums are the same. Between the supply quality and availability issues and other design flaws, I would not recommend the V3100 unless you can get a really sweet price on it.
