Not sure how involved I would want to get with a professor teaching this stuff. Many designers make nice stuff but have no clue about how it is all put together. The good ones do of course. We have a minimum charge of $10. We have a few big universities here and anything that comes in I inspect...

what printer is it? Have you tried running some colour prints to clean things up inside? Try printing 20 pieces of 11x17 full colour pictures 2 sided and then try your job again.

I agree with MailGuru, that is a small volume and you are probably better off at the moment outsourcing that till your volume increases. You add maintenance and the headaches that come with digital printing for a very small volume. What is the weight of the stock you are printing on? Guessing...

I am glad none of our customers use Quark because we would do the same thing. We get the odd Corel file every now and then. Have a virtual machine with Corel 8 running just for those times or I use an online converter. If more started coming though I would have to get that software as well and I...

It is a shrinking market. I am guessing most people are not watching HBO Go on a desktop or laptop but using a phone or tablet. And if they are using Apple they are certainly not using flash. Do Android phones and tablets use flash natively? It is still there, annoyingly so, I hate the pop ups...

Why would Microsoft buy Adobe? It would not be an add-on to office, does not feel like it would make sense for Microsoft to also be running the largest graphic design software suite. How does Adobe CC compete or match salesforce?

I think it will be a long time before Publisher (worst name ever) will be even close to taking over from Indesign. So many features are not even on their radar or plans. No variable data and no preflight are 2 big ones for me. I have not kept up to date with the PDF handling but it was not good...

I agree, though I am much more open for a new standard when it comes to page layout. Not happy with Adobes forced subscription model that basically locks you into their services. Been a CC member for 3 or 4 years and if I stop now I have zero software to show for that time but lots of files that...

Which model Presstek CTP do you have? There might be other options that work, we only tried the Kodak Sonora XP plates as that is what we wanted to move to and they could not get them even close to being good for press. Might be different with other types of plates. We started with Presstek and...

The only time we really have to remake plates is if there is something wrong with the file. Been years since we had any damaged plates. Had a few crooked plates and that was user error on our old Presstek. With our screen 4100 it has been perfect, at least in terms of plates imaged with no damage.

We had a Dimension 425 and it was ok when new but really caused headaches down the road. We decided to go with another plate after using the anthem pro plates for about 10 years. We tried to make the Kodak Sonora XP plates work, had a guy who used to work on Presstek along with a guy from kodak...

Had our rep come by a few times showing off prints from this machine. It all looked great but not sure with our client base where we would use the extra colours. I do love it though and the nerd in me wants that to see what neat stuff we could spit out. It is a shame though that this machine...

That makes sense, forgot about that DRM for the iTunes music purchases. Still if you were able to run Quark on 5 devices at once with the same Apple ID it would be cheaper buying it that way albeit not exactly legal per their fine print.

I was curious about the App store and the limitations for how many devices you could install it on. I guess if you are a company using Quark and have a bunch of people using the software it would be cheaper to buy once through the App store and install on all the computers needed with the same...

I thought that as well. I was told the V2100 was just bigger in that area but otherwise basically the same for the print engine. That machine would be boxed up and sent back to Xerox the moment they said it was an unfixable defect of that model.

Service is going to vary area to area. I would be trying to find other printers who have similar machines to what you are looking for and ask them their honest opinion about the service they have been receiving from Ricoh or any of the other big guys. I know for us Xerox service has been...

I wonder if purchasing online will lead to any issues crossing the boarder. If they decide to investigate you a little and see you have purchased weed online will they permanently bar you from the country? I have heard that if you mention you even smoked a joint 20 years ago they will deny you...

Good idea trying to find out if others are having the same issue. I have real trouble believing Xerox would sell a product with that issue. Would you have bought the machine had you know you would have incurable lines on your prints? Doubt it. Good luck and don't let up, just keep pushing higher...

+1 You will need to keep pushing and fighting with Xerox. There is no way they sold you the machine stating there is one little issue... it leaves lines down the sheet. This would be covered under the customer satisfaction agreement you signed. We fought with Xerox for over a year because they...

That should not be an acceptable response from Xerox. I have had similar lines and had them fixed on our 2100. Not sure if it is the same thing with what you are having. I would be pushing Xerox harder on a solution, they cannot sell a machine that leaves lines like that on the print, they are...
