    Toner vs. Inkjet stickers?

    It's customer perception too. If you hand your client paper stickers and either you or another printer have provided laminated vinyl then your product looks inferior and as mentioned laminated vinyl is the industry norm.

    Toner vs. Inkjet stickers?

    No, the standard would be inkjet, vinyl, laminate for a quality product. You have the flexibility of any size and any shape without trouble. We do a mix of both depending on use. I have clients I use prediecut sheet labels on the Xerox for the likes of sandwiches etc. Then I have wide format...

    Digital over runs. What do you do?

    If there's a possibility of it being re-ordered in the future we'd pack and keep. If it's for an event, I'd just keep them back until that event is over, then dump. I don't think I'd ever just give them double an order, if there's any chance of them needing to order more at another stage...

    Lines on Versant 280

    This thread here is from a few years ago with the same issue. This specific post has a workaround for CYM but not K. https://printplanet.com/threads/xerox-versant-80-problem-with-vertical-line-on-all-colours.279572/post-279708 You may want to check with a tech for values for 280

    Lines on Versant 280

    Its banding, big very well known flaw on the Versant range. If cyan is the predominant colour you'll see it about 30mm from lead edge, if magenta about 100mm past this, then yellow 100mm again and then black is about 30mm from tail edge. Basically same distance and order as your drums are. I...

    creasing on Versant 280

    Condat 135gsm silk if bought as SRA3 looks to be Long grain. If the product isn't grain dependent I'd see about getting short grain (probably SRA2 and trim in half). Still should be able to print it without creasing but just a possible workaround.

    creasing on Versant 280

    Can you try a different make of silk to rule out the stock? Why are you changing the 2nd BTR every 3/4 days, is that solving the creasing or another issue?

    Versant 180 Envelope Color Nightmare

    Sorry very hard to make out on that, can you describe your issue better. Is it just an uneven cyan?

    Versant 4100 Vs Ricoh 7210

    Or you can look at it being you're a stronger client with two machines and they'll go out of your way to help more. Also the advantage of getting the 4100 is that if you do have a breakdown on either machine or have such volume you need to two machines going two cover the workload you know the...

    Raffle Ticket Books stapling

    On average each order would be 300-600 books. To be honest it can be done surprisingly fast, more the monotony of it gets to you, but I just wondered if there was any nice gadgets to help that don't break the bank.

    Raffle Ticket Books stapling

    Generally they're 210x99mm, numbered with Indesign data merge and set to 6up on SRA3 with collate and stack on the Fiery. I then trim so 3up to run through the perforator before being trimmed to finished size, no need to collate as all in number order via Fiery. At this point the fun begins of...

    Best cutting machine for business card cutting

    I see Duplo, Aerocut etc mentioned here all the time. Would they handle a 350gsm with double sided laminate? or even 400gsm with same? on a regular basis.

    Fujifilm enter UK market

    Will be interesting to see how this progresses. Competition is always welcome but I wonder how good their support and service offerings will be either direct or outsourced. https://www.digitalprintermag.co.uk/news/77723/uk-debut-for-fujifilm-revoria-and-apeospro-c-presses/

    When or why is an (expensive) RIP important?

    I'd love to learn more on this too. From the very little I know the RIP basically rasterizes the file and in doing so enhances colour, profile, detail etc. Not to mention all the other machine settings. I think the RIP often gets overlooked by just how many default settings it applies to a job...

    Xerox Versant 280 Scratch Lines?

    Interesting. I'm just wondering can you confirm your earlier comment on it occurring on both single sided and double sided? Was the single sided face down? Surely if simplex, face up and marking then it's still not meeting the RML theory of manual. Had a look at our v80 this morning and I can...

    What to get after Xerox Versant 3100, what is in same class or a bit better?

    In all my years with Xerox, DC3535, DC242 and now V80 i've never been had a problem with call services in Ireland. Generally straight through in seconds, give serial and basic description of problem and they just give me confirmation number. Sometimes get a call back from engineer scheduler to...

    So if it's that roller its scratching the sheet prior to toner hitting the sheet.

    Upgrading to a Canon V700

    If that's 50k per month SRA3, I'd exaggerate that to 75k+. I'd say you'll naturally migrate certain litho jobs over in time. We had a DC3535, our first digital press, can't say I remember it being too bad but at the time going digital it just seemed amazing and we knew no better. I'm surprised...
