    Xerox Versant 80 Problem with vertical line on all colours!!!

    4 months into using our Versant 80 I noticed a dark vertical line appearing in the tint areas of a job I was running. When an Engineer came round to have a look, I was told that it is one of the faults of the Xerox Versant 80 (see images attached) and that there was no way around the problem. I...

    Stitching problem with Duplo DBM-120

    Thanks. I've already tried moving the clincher out of position and then placing it back again, but still the same problem. I was also looking at taking it apart but the screws are so small that if they drop into the booklet maker, it can be a nightmare looking for them. The positioning of the...

    Stitching problem with Duplo DBM-120

    Hi Everyone, Lately I've been having problems with my Duplo DBM-120 booklet maker. Around 3 in every 10 books are not closing properly once stapled through. I've changed staple heads but this doesn't make any difference. Attached is a picture showing the problem. I also have a 2nd Duplo DBM-120...

    Xerox 700 Bad Print with Spots

    I think it looks like you've got contamination in your Magenta Dev Tank. You need to change the developer for whichever colour has the spots. This has happened to me a few times before and it seem to happen after paper dust from an uncoated stock got into my dev tank. The Xerox engineer came...

    Is it me or the printer?

    What I've found with my Xerox 700 is that every tray and every stock of paper has a slightly different alignment, so I've had to set up separate alignment adjustments for every thickness of stock I use. I use Colotech+ and the cheaper Color Impressions material which has come down in price...

    Worst job that ever crossed your screen.

    Did you send the PDF back for them for approval. I sometimes resend them their own PDF and they come back with changes as if it's my fault.

    Xerox 800 - Waste toner streaks on sheets

    Make sure there is waste toner in the waste bottle, because around 2 years ago we had a waste bottle fail on us which meant the coil in the bottle wasn't turning and blocked toner in the tubes all the way back to the auger. It was a bit of a job to clean up and replace, but luckily we were on a...

    Xerox 800 - Waste toner streaks on sheets

    Not sure how the configuration works with the Xerox 800, but we have a Xerox 700 and once or twice had 2 parallel lines close together like train tracks. This was due to the cleaning blade at the end of the IBT belt having nicks and cuts in it through wear and tear. Once we replaced the cleaning...

    Printing Envelopes on Xerox 700 or any digital press

    Thanks for the info...very useful on both accounts. I've just spoken to your paper supplier (here in the UK) and have been told that Xerox have discontinued the digital envelope range. I'll now have to source a supplier of digital envelopes and understand what you have said about the window...

    Printing Envelopes on Xerox 700 or any digital press

    Does anyone have experience of printing Digital Envelopes on a Xerox 700 or any other heat based digital press. I've got some samples from my paper supplier and it sounds like a good way of keeping the print in-house and would be much cheaper rather than out sourcing as litho print. Is there...

    Xerox 700 - Paper Jam

    I've been using the Xerox 700 for over 3 years now and looked after it very well with lots of self maintenance, instead of killing it and calling out Xerox engineers when it's on its last legs. I've been using Xerox's for over 10 years and know them quite well. I've also used 350gsm Uncoated and...
