    how would I qualify for canon Corporate Service Training?

    I'm sure you can get the Canon tech to show you how to do the waste toner and cleaning webs. Both of those cause hard codes on the machine. I'm not sure what else the techs will show you but, I would keep a careful eye on when non-user replaceable bits are do and push to have them done when a...

    Upgrade Advice and WC7500 Experience...

    At my previous employer we bought a Canon 6010. The lease price is high but it runs 30K 12x18 without breaking a sweat. We have fixed for 4 years leas click and it was well under $.06. The lease is fixed so fight on the clicks lower is better as you grow.

    AB Dick PrintersRIP DPM34HSC problem

    DPMS are funny with power outages and brown outs. THe first thing I would do is stop the channels (Red stop button) then check to see if any of the inputs are disabled. If not press the green button. Often that's all it takes. Ray Also I'm not in front of my RIP and it's an NT version but...

    Sheet registration on Canon 7010VP

    Understood. The number I gave you is in the sales brochure so, now you have a target. Our machine has been remarkably consistent for the 14 months we've had it and we are really pleased. You're right it's not an Indigo but it's pretty darned nice at about 1/4th the price. :)

    Sheet registration on Canon 7010VP

    That is not expected at all. We run a 6010 Non VP and if we mark gripper and guide and jog properly (Like a press job) then a variance of 1/32 of an inch across the run is a lot. Canon has a customer expectation doc on this machine get a copy. Your registration is way out of spec. Also I...

    AB-Dick DPM 2340 and Windows 64bit

    I tried posting this yesterday but here was the solution. I called someone I know at Presstek and on the 64bit systems the printer has to be set up as a local printer. You create a new local port such as \\dpm23401\ABDCMYK. The printers are now working fine so we don't need the hot folders...

    We have had a DPM for several years and it's been bulletproof. Because of this we put one in our new office in VA to replace an Itek 617 (Yes people still use them.) This location was an acquisition so I'm trying to set up the RIP along with my Tech and we're having a bear of a time. We...

    Xerox Docucolor Clicks

    All of our color machines are 1 price regardless of the size. We won't sign a contract unless that's specified. This is part of the reason we avoided the did not get the 800 (That and the TCO was to high).

    I print the occasional transparency for a local screen printer and I'm trying to help him out. Does anyone know of a workaround on the 6010 to run transparencies over 8.5x11. The machine will not let you select transparencies or labels on larger sizes. Ray

    KM c6501 or Canon 6010??? I need some help...

    We recently upgraded from a Bizhub 6500 to the 6010. They are Apples & Kumquats. We chose the 6010 over the bizhub 8000, why. Massive throughput gain over the 65xx series. Even though the 6010 is a "60ppm" machine it is faster than the 65xx series on just about every stock. we've seen jobs get...

    any Feedback about Canon C6010

    WE have the a1200 with the Canon 6010 (Non vp) We do very little VI Printing right now and the A1200 is the Only fiery that is sold with all of the KM 7000/8000 machines so I figured it was robust enough for our needs. So far so good. Oddly enough the only paper I've had trouble with the Accent...
