I've been running a Mpress & Fiery E-80 for a year now and can confirm that what StrikTenn says is dead on. You can make it work, but not without issues.

Cost maybe? Aren't the X-boxes more pricey than most?

One of the unmentioned bonuses is the amount of flat workspace you'll get, especially on the bulk cassette units, but continuing down the length of the train.

There's porn available outside of the internet?!

Most copier companies, when rebadging/rebranding, will change the shape of the neck of the bottle and the inlet on the copier side. This is usually done with keys or tabs that can be removed to make one fit the other. As a former Konica and Oce' tech, I'd simply order whatever toner you have...

I'm not employed by Ricoh or a dealership. I'm a tech at a training center that has a C900 (plus 1107 and 1357) that we use for course materials. I love it because it's easy to work on and, at 1 million clicks in 9 months (1 mil plus on each box), we've had no major service issues on any of the...

Dennie, I definitely appreciate the follow up; though we don't have any major problems with the oil based fuser, eliminating a potential fail point is always a good thing.

Which machine do you have?

Dennie, As a tech that's factory trained on both the Ricoh 907/1107/1357 as well as the Oce' Varioprint line, I'll offer up my experiences on both. Ricoh: I have an 1107 and a 1357 side by side that both have 1.1 million after 9 months and they're running flawlessly so far. Here's where they...

Thank you!

Dennie, If you get a chance to talk with your tech, could you ask what bulletin or white paper references this fuser mod for the C900? I'd like to check the availability here in the States. Regards, Tom/Hemlock

Oh, geez; 25-50 isn't even enough to warm it up. Test runs on production equipment should approach or exceed half a case, preferably on a job you have waiting so there's no waste. Insist the tech hangs out and waits while you check it out thoroughly. Had an Oce a few years ago that wouldn't...

In house tech, no affiliation with Ricoh or a dealership: We have a C900, full scale Fiery (E-80) and it suits our needs. Low down time, oil based fuser is a non-issue and the oversized toner tubes are pretty easy/long-lasting. Biggest downer is the nooks and crannies were made for Japanese...

How many test pages does this tech run before leaving?

After suffering through an Oce CPS900 (oil based fuser), I was concerned about what we were getting into. Honestly, the oil is a non issue. Though, if someone offered to swap ours out with a 901, I certainly wouldn't object.

Ouch! We've had ours since last July and, overall, love it. There's a matrix you have to follow that indicates what settings are necessary for which paper, it's kind of a pain, but not a dealbreaker. For the record, I was dead set against Ricoh when the powers that be decided to buy it...

Assuming you mean the Varioprint 6250 (which uses an LED printhead, not laser) I can say that as long as the machine is run and maintained adequately, it's a top notch device. Because it's 2 print engines in one, the registration is more accurate than you'll see on just about any comparable...

GBC Streamline, in particular. I've found that, according to documentation, we can't run tabs through our punch unit. Has anyone seen/used/experienced a GBC style punch unit that'll do tabs and/or odd sized paper?

I have a bulletin that lists all configurations and one is called an LSF configuration; it's the stacker, saddle stitcher and the FS-521 (100 sheet staple finisher with 3000 sheet exit tray). PM me your email addy and I can send the config PDF.
