I think I understand better now from your description. This is for estimating purposes ONLY, not prepress. Perhaps prepress has the full-blown paid version for output and the estimating department is given a free copy for preview only, a nice idea. You saved me the time of trying something that...

I was a bit confused but this makes it clear. Your sketch looks just like the document preview in the Duplo job creator. Overall document size is missing from the Duplo preview.

That’s terrible! Sounds like you have no options other than either going the attorney route, and that takes time or take a bit of a loss and sell the Ricoh and bring in a new machine. There are vendors always looking for nice low mileage machines to buy. It’s a painful experience no one should...

I’m having a hard time understanding why Ricoh would turn ALL their service over to a provider that can’t provide service for production equipment. In a town with a population of 150,000 people, you could have a dozen production machines between print providers and inhouse production. Sure...

Power off machine, hold down both forward and backward jog buttons while turning power back on. You'll hear a few beeps and see service mode options.

The Canon C710, C810 and C910 are identical machines. The only difference is a tag on the machine and the speed. If you bought a new one, you’d get a certificate that indicates what speed license you paid for. If you get the C810 it’s just a slowed down C910, no difference in quality. I found...

Xerox is recommending that the suction filter be changed every 25,000 clicks now, but I thought that was because of additional heat that was being created when not enough air was able to flow. If you don't have a new filter to try, I would take the filter outside and blow compressed air through...

You may find some helpful information on this site nobelus. I have no vested interest in this company, but find they have a great deal of information on laminating and sleeking.

I have no experience with the V1000, but two service techs were in my shop, and they were talking about how they were having so many problems with an account that had a V1000. They said Canon agreed to replace it because they were having so many problems that couldn’t be resolved. Great service...

Not sure if would help, I'm on Windows but my Fiery Command WorkStation is at 7.0.0.34. 7 requires an account and login to update now.

If you dampen a sheet of paper, you can determine the grain direction. When dampened, the waves will be along the grain, just like you see happening after you print with the laser printer. Paper will stretch and bend differently depending on the grain direction. The heat removes moisture causing...

Not sure what your volume is and what you’re printing, text, graphics, or combination but there are other alternatives. LED printers will have a lower fuser temperature, but they’ll still suck moisture out of the sheets and this is what causes the sheets to become wavy after printing. If you’re...

I have this same issue with my Versant 280. It looks like your background tinting is more pronounced than what I have. I never had this on my 80 and I still have sample sheets provided by Xerox that were printed on a 180, and they don’t have this background tinting either. It’s not noticeable...

This is so very true! The vendor (Ricoh) can get Fiery on a conference call with the customer, and Canon did this for me one time. It didn’t solve the issue and the Fiery specialist couldn’t wait to hang up the phone but it’s worth a try to let Ricoh know they need to get Fiery involved. I was...

So much for a PDF workflow. Here's what some others on Print Planet had to say about Postscript Postscript workflow

Thanks everyone, this confirms what I was thinking. I would never short an order and then expect the customer to pay for the original quantity that they ordered. I have no problem with the forms printer that always overruns, these are 2 and 3 part continuous forms and they let me know ahead of...

I’m curious what others experience when working with trade printers. I have a form vendor that is always 10% over and bills for the difference, no problem, better than short. I have another 4/4 vendor that is ALWAYS 10% under and will not adjust pricing to reflect it. It gets a bit annoying on...

I’m not familiar with the Fuji rip, so can’t say anything about imposing on that rip. I have a Fiery on my V280 and have never paid for impose because I do all my impositions in Quite Imposing. There are other alternatives to Quite like Montax Imposer that will work fine for your simple and more...

Hopefully, someone on this board that is familiar with Ricoh in your area can help you find someone to put this machine under service contract. I would be very aggressive with finding someone quickly in case your current service provider hasn’t kept up with maintenance. The new service provider...

You may want to post this again, but ask; Looking for service provider for (insert your machine make and model here) in upper Midwest. That I know of, no vendor will give you credit for lost materials due to malfunctions, they will tell you that you should be watching your output and stop if...
