But BROTHER makes printers. It's all starting to make sense now!

Generally in-line finishers treat each file as a set, so unless there's some kind of subset finishing option in your controller, you'll need to send it as 500 1 page documents. It should be pretty easy with a hotfolder. Acrobat has a feature that allows you to split pages, so you could just tell...

Have you tried running NR short edge? It's slower, but it might prevent the dog ears.

How do you print to your fiery? Are you using Hotfolder, or the print driver? Your driver might be overwriting settings. I don't use the driver for anything on our printers.

Unfortunately our shop uses Canon's PrismaSync controllers so I haven't used a Fiery in about 10 years.

https://gwg.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/efi_fiery_ghent_output_suite_50_fg_US.pdf Make sure your settings are correct. I printed the file on my printer and it printed without issue.

A PDFX/4 workflow could probably prevent this. You can go here to get test files and instructions on being compliant. You shouldn't have to flatten or anything once you get it working, and it will eliminate tons of future issues.

Canon/Oce has a headquarters in Venlo which might be a selling point for service and parts availability. I wouldn't go with in-line finishing, I'd get an offline machine that you can continue to use no matter what printer you use. An offline booklet maker will last you several generations of...

It's been my experience that vendor samples are usually not quality controlled. I've seen samples of Canon's iX with print head strikes, and that's a million dollar machine. We have the nxt, and these voids pop up occasionally, but I just wipe the head with a lint free cloth and it's back to...

We have one machine in a carpeted room and one on concrete. I've never noticed any issues on either machine. If you're concerned with spills just buy a toner vac.

The 750 is an Imagepress. If the new V models have corner registration then it should solve all of my complaints with registration. That's what our 10000 uses and it's fantastic.

We are a Canon shop. We have an Imagepress 750, a 10,000 and a Varioprint 6320. We were sold a 750 as a proofing machine and a lightweight backup for emergencies. It does a poor job of staying in register when you calibrate media. It also does a poor job of holding that registration throughout...

Registration sucks on the 7/8/900 Canon's. I'd go with someone else.

I would love an iX, but last i heard they're in the 1million dollar range. Also, for what it's worth, Canon's production printers register to a corner, so they back up much more reliably than other digital printers.

I feel like the 6000/7000 had a lot of problems, so a lot of shops jumped ship. I pretty much hated running our 6010 near the end since I was constantly getting tail end fading and it printed terribly on uncoated stocks. We're running a 1000 currently, and will likely upgrade to the V series...

I would hate running an NXT for that volume. I ran 5000 #10s the other day and it felt like it took forever. The printhead on the NXT also constantly needs cleaning or I get voids.

Are you using a hotfolder, or printing from the driver?

We use Quite Imposing after InDesign outputs the VDP 1up.

I dunno if it's a California thing, but damn near every political mailing went away for us because everyone wants a union bug now. Not complaining, since political clients are the worst, but you might want to not get too invested before you realize you can't print anything because they want to...

Yes, that's the correct ink from Addrex. Printware's ordering page shows the same inks for the classic and the nxt, so they should be the same.
