The Versant 80 was launched seven and a half years ago, whereas the KM C3070 technology is at least two years newer. I don't follow Xerox so am unsure of the machine evolution since then, however KM replaced the C3070 with the C4070/4080 in late 2020 and many of the parts and consumables in...

You should be able to find a second hand Magnapunch 1 with at least one tool for well under 1k. Inspect and test the tool/s thoroughly to ensure all pins are present and sharp, look for rough edges.

Pick up a second hand GBC Magnapunch (not the inferior Magnapunch 2) For A5, typically you’ll only need to remove one pin at one end For A5 2-up punched as A4, pull the pin closest to where you’ll guillotine at 148.5mm

Final draft.pdf crops up occasionally…:mad:

We have the DBM-150T with a Plockmatic SQ-104 on the end of it. I'm looking at a 64pp booklet (15 sheets of 80GSM with a 160GSM cover) here, which is perfectly flat and face trimmed perfectly square.

I'm not familiar with your machine, however the No.1 rule for any self adhesive substrates on a dry toner press - check you have the straightest possible paper path - don't use the trays beneath the engine, to prevent sheets U-turning as they register, exit via the straightest, flattest route...

I believe the keying is common, however the winding is reversed on some variants. Our dealer mentioned this and checked our stock on a visit last month, as another C4080 customer received stock with the reversed windings. We had a similar situation during the KM toner crisis with TN-015 for...

Always great when you self resolve a problem like that, I find it's the best way to really get to understand your machines.

Production inkjet technology comes with an enormous price tag and footprint. Perhaps you can quantify “large runs”? Depending on the quality you’re seeking, maybe look at Riso.

Check the technical specs for current draw of the equipment you want to protect with a UPS. An under-sized UPS usually just stalls and goes into protect mode when overloaded. If you are competent to do it (or better still have a friendly spark) clamp the line either using a core splitter or...

An uninterruptible power supply is designed to provide sufficient power for sufficient time to either perform a managed shutdown of sensitive and vital equipment (IT, comms, security systems, etc) or power it until the standby generator, usually on an automatic changeover switch that detects the...

I've always been cautious of this fix, perhaps because we print lots of full bleed covers with heavy solids. I would be nervous of toner flaking off the covers with use, rather than whilst on the bench. As our finishing is offline and we like to crease 250/300GSM covers before putting them...

Option (4) is best in my book. This applies to anything "different and difficult" that your shop cannot currently produce... unless it is going to represent significant and frequent ongoing demand. That way, you're still fulfilling your customer's requirements, without considerable time and...

@jhagman welcome to the forum You'll likely attract more useful responses if you tell a little more about the flatbed you currently operate and its limitations / frustrations bringing the desire for something "more versatile". What capabilities are you looking for that you don't currently...

Our KM C4080 does the same. My understanding is the delay between substrate changes is the adjustment in fuser temperature

Check the specs It will only do 300GSM from the bypass tray, which irrespective of manufacturer, is the worst paper source for accurate registration. The other trays are rated to 256GSM maximum. Business cards should be 300GSM minimum, ideally 350GSM (IMO) Business cards are typically...

Is there a dealer network your side of the pond? In the UK, we are fortunate in having the choice of OEM or dealer channels. Before buying our C4080, for comparison we enquired of the OEM route and the high-pressure, mediocre-knowledge salesman quickly got our backs up. If you have similar...

A few ideas... Rotate the job 180deg so the original trailing edge becomes the leading edge Use the straightest available paper path Let the job stand a couple of days, to completely de-static What machine are you using?

That’s just under 30k GBP, which seems excessive and more than we paid for a C4080 with PF-707m vacuum feed deck and LU-202Xlm. Although we have the OT-510 and KM’s OEM controller, so that saved a bit over the Fiery option and we bought ours at the end of 2020, so pricing may have moved since...
