Hi there. Is there a quick way to add trap/spreads in pitstop. Customer is grizzing that there is a very fine white line (it moves about a bit ) on his b/cards. Around black text on a dark orange background. File is a PDF supplied by customer. (I think it is create in Coral) I see there is...

Hi Chock. Sorry only just seen your reply. my email is [email protected]. Ideally after the DFC 100/120. thanks Simon

Hi there, Can anyone direct me to a website where I can download one of these. I don't mind paying for it but want to know it is safe before loading my credit card details. thanks Simon

Hi Maniac. Sounds like an amazing machine . It would be great to see a video of it working?. I wonder if he would be able to find contracts now? with the shift away from plastic. Did he sell it?

Funny thing about letterheads! everyone says they have to be printed offset (toner comes off when put threw a hot laser printer) yes this does happen occasional! but I have found in around 90% of cases this does NOT happen. I always provided x10 - x15 for the customer to trial threw there laser...

Is there anyone out there that is surviving on small/medium size offset alone? My gut feeling is they must be getting rare. 5 years ago my work load was approx 50% offset 50% digital. Now approx 5% offset 95% digital. Even NCR seems to be going digital! but having said that! the evidence seems...

I know I'm getting off subject a bit, but would love to hear from anyone who does have a small offset that is NOT doing less and less work on it! Every year that go's by the ration of offset jobs to digital is going against offset. (in this part of the world anyway) Is there anyone out there...

Thanks kdw. Interesting stuff. Yes I'm always having to replace the 2nd BTR on my 2100. Fortunately now I have got the techs always leaving me one here so can I do myself. This did not use to be the case. I Run NCR on my offset! so not a problem with the BTR. Do you run pre perforated sheets? if...

Hi SoggyWinter. Interesting you are having problems with your V3100. I have not heard of problems from from anyone else. Maybe yours is a lemon. I bet a "baby" Iridesse would still be an arm and a leg. I think a V180 would be a sidewise move for me even with metallic and white, especially since...

Hi there. Has any one out there heard the the rumours?. Supposed placed between the v3100 and Iridesse. I would be interested. My issue is- Currently run a v2100! the v3100 is not enough of a upgrade to make it worth while (straight from the mouths of the xerox techs). Unless I was offered a...

Yes I get this same problem to varying degree. No quick easy fix but I concur with Keith. I have a printer friend with a duplo. . I know this does not help with the glued books but for the saddled stitched ones it's a breeze. It's just a front edge knife trimer. Trim two long edges to finished...

Looks interesting. I'd be surprised if there was an agent in this part of the world (New Zealand) but will do some investigating.

India does not sound good!. A lot of people knock our government but I have had over 20k in government money and I'm only a little business, ( myself/wife and x 2 part timers). Having said that it's not really my money as I have to pay it out as a wage subsidy's to staff but you get the idea...

Here in New Zealand we have been in lock down for the last 3 & 1/2 weeks, They call it Level 4, Expecting to go to level "3" later this afternoon but not a done deal. My ( small ) shop has been forced to shut. The only printing allowed has been for essential services. Have done 2 jobs over the...

Hi There. Thinking about adding another string to my bow!. I think this could be ago (But I need to do more market research). The issue seems to be that I need to print these with handles attached so are limited to what kind of machine they will go threw. Screen printed.: To slow. cost of...

Hi Josh Just wondering how you are coping? I'm assuming you are in lock down like me, I have heard of a few printers that have exceptions (the laminators up the road from me have an exception! something to do with food packaging) Have you tried to get a little leniency from Xero LoL. A sobering...

thanks, I did find someone in India who seems quite good. Makes more economic sense to send this sort of work out than do my self. (unless very basic). ta Simon

Hi there. Can anyone recommend someone who can do these on a casual basis. Most of the ones I have seen want you to upload 100+ images . Doesn't have to be in a the third world. I don't really care where they are as long as they are reliable, fast and resonably priced. thanks for your help.

Hi there. Have quite a few "old" letterpress numbering machines here that you can have for a good price if you are interested? Private message me if you are keen and I'll let you know what I have (what brands, skip wheels etc…) FYI. I only use Heidelberg platens. I have a big GT at the moment...

Hi There. Sorry do not have any personal experience with the "MBM 1800S" But I do have an older Duplo DF 1000. Great machine as long as you don't want to fold anything over about 170gsm. Anything over a 200gsm I definitely pre crease on my morgana. Fast set up and running speed. Hope this helps.
