    Need equipment advise

    I used to have KM C754E's with Fiery so very similar machine and upgraded to Ricoh C5310s so we're in a similar position but in reverse. I've not had too many problems with the Ricohs, although our volumes are lower than yours. By far and away the most important factors are testing the...

    problems with fiery drivers after moving to Windows 11

    I posted a query over there before coming here. But their site does say: "...All other current versions of Fiery products and drivers are compatible with Windows 11" https://communities.efi.com/s/question/0D55w00008q1LjiCAE/windows-11-compatibility-status?language=en_US

    log counter readings end of each month? Ricoh Pro c5310

    Bump - just wondering if anyone is aware of perhaps a software application that would take automatic meter readings from two printers, and then either back this up somewhere, or I could schedule a process to run a report or something..

    anyone here use tabbers / binding supermarket?

    Hi Chrispy3, thanks a lot for your feedback. I appreciate it. I'll take a look at Scotia. Printing lots of tabs is quite a niche but I knew someone would know what I was on about!

    anyone here use tabbers / binding supermarket?

    have used tabbers for several years to get a4/a5 mylar tabs etc. for a while now they've been difficult to get hold of, and have now changed their website to www.mytabbers.co.uk they don't seem to answer the phone when ringing them. so i was wondering if anyone knows if they're still trading...

    how much ventilation is really needed for digital presses?

    thanks all for feedback. have had an initial chat with a supplier of filtration equipment and they have recommended either a hepa 13 or hepa 14 filtration system to remove any particulates, and a carbon filter to reduce odours. the cost was not high for one of those - between 800 to 100 EUR...

    which digital presses have shortest delay inserting tabs and other mixed media?

    Further update: much success! In addition to the fuser priority setting change, I created a new custom tab paper using the same settings as regular 80gsm a4 office paper. Findings: - If printing simplex sheets in between tabs there is zero noticeable delay. - if printing duplex sheets in...

    which digital presses have shortest delay inserting tabs and other mixed media?

    Update: So i tried changing the setting "SP1-131-001 Feed Permit Condition" to 'Productivity Priority' instead of 'Fusing Priority'. That is outlined in a document from Ricoh re. the c9200 in this thread here...

    which digital presses have shortest delay inserting tabs and other mixed media?

    Yeah it kills the productivity, right? Imagine when you have hundreds of docs that are just 1-2 pages long between tabs. Urgh!!

    which digital presses have shortest delay inserting tabs and other mixed media?

    Don't think I've tried the same weight but there's a big difference in weight between 80gsm paper and thick tab sheets. I'm concerned that might lead to more misfeeds etc. I found a setting in the service menu though which apparently prioritises speed over quality with mixed media. Will test...

    which digital presses have shortest delay inserting tabs and other mixed media?

    thanks for this. I understand from what Ricoh have told me, that it's not about adjusting temperature, it's about clearing the paper path entirely before changing the stock between plain paper and tab. i have a dual tray cover interposer. it's of limited use though.. if we need to use the...

    how much ventilation is really needed for digital presses?

    thanks. i'm thinking about ordering an ozone detector and then went down a bit of a rabbit hole looking at air quality detectors etc.

    which digital presses have shortest delay inserting tabs and other mixed media?

    Currently using two Ricoh C5310's. Printing lots of A4 and A5 tab sheets. There is about a 7 second delay when the printer switches from printing office paper to printing a tab., and then same delay switching back to office paper. Ricoh said this is due to the machine entirely clearing the...

    Post Inserting (KM Pro951)

    i don't know whether they are right or wrong that it can't be done using the driver alone and your hardware config. but you can definitely come up with a workflow to do this if you use an application like Batch & Print Pro. you can download a free trial of it and e-mail their technical support...

    how much ventilation is really needed for digital presses?

    It's normally only me that's in there for extended periods. Other people come and go for shorter periods. Colleague of mine with an office 15m away said the smell was coming out of the room and stinking out the entire corridor today
