I think it all comes down to the brand name and differences in opinion. Many people have had bad luck with one brand or another and have entirely switched and practically refuse to look at other brands. This could be due to something on the service side they were unhappy with or the engine...

We have a 7655 as well as a DC250, I've found that both have virtually the same registration...in reality they are the same piece of machinery, albeit with a different front end. We run EVERYTHING, except prints that don't need any sort of registration from our bypass trays in both machines...

How are you creating the PDF files from Microsoft? I've found that using the "print to" adobe PDF print driver often causes transparency issues with the newer versions of MS Office. Usually what we recommend our customers to do is download the "Save as PDF" add-on to MS Office, this usually...

Cory is right...setup Outlook to use IMAP rather than POP3. All emails will be saved on the server and updated in real time across your different instances of Outlook (on multiple systems). Of course your email server (email provider) will have to be providing IMAP services but I think at this...

I would have to say it depends on what you are using it for. Many of our large format prints are much lower in resolution but look fine when viewed from the distance they are meant to be viewed from. We've done many prints at 100ppi (at full size), and some billboard size prints at 50 dpi. It...

polygon bomb 15 error polygon bomb 15 error We ended up taking off the top cover as instructed and blowing everything off. It didn't look particularly dusty or anything but we plugged it back in and it works fine now. Anton Lix, I would still like a copy of the manual if you don't mind. I...

Bomb 15 error Bomb 15 error We are currently getting the bomb 15 error on our Panther Pro Imagesetter. From a prior post it looks as though it might be the Polygon motor? Could anyone elaborate further as to how one might go about checking this (and explain what a polygon motor is). I have...

We've run thousands of peel n' seal through out dc250 without problems. We run them so the long edge goes in first. While we always use a crappy fuser I've never had problems with adhesive build-up or printing problems. We always run through the bypass tray in small lifts (25 max) and have only...

Determining "sheet number" based on "document page number" of printer spreads Does anyone know of a formula or easy method for determining which page of an imposed PDF will have a certain page number. For instance we have a book that we are digitally printing on 11x17 sheets, (finished book...

We own a Xerox 700 DCP that we're having mottle problems with on heavier stocks (250-300 gsm). It seems to depend on the color. The black seems to print pretty dense, however when printing colors like dark blue it gets very mottled looking. I'm assuming this is due to the 200% ink coverage...

We are currently having trouble with our Xerox 700 DCP getting it to register color to color accurately. For instance the job we just finished was a color build black (20 C, 20 M, 20 Y, 100 K) with knockout white text. After running several sheets of 12pt C2S stock the color goes in and out of...

if you don't have to have the 14pt but could instead do it on 12pt or lighter these would be easily doable on virtually any "light production" and office duty printers. You would simply setup a basic mail merge with an excel file with the numbers as your data file. Basic stuff like this can be...

we've had very good results and quality with our Canon iPF8000. It has fantastic print quality and we do not use a RIP. We calibrate our screens for our smaller Xerox color printers and use an RGB workflow and I have yet to be disappointed by the color from screen to print. It's a 12 color...

Maximum weight the 700 is rated to duplex is 220 gsm which equates to approx 80 lb cover which is 216 gsm. This is for coated and uncoated stock. That being said we often run 267 gsm stock in duplex mode on a daily basis. You do have to have the right job though as there will be more variance...

Does anyone know detailed specs on the Ricoh c720. I've downloaded the brochure from their website but have been unable to ascertain if they are quoting tolerances for registration (front to back & sheet to sheet). There is also nothing I can see that tells the max weight of sheet it will...

I completely agree with CMS. We had a similar test on all these machines except the Ricoh box and ended up purchasing both a Canon iR9075 and a Xerox DCP. The main reason for the purchase of the iR9075 was cost as it was a third less money than the others. However after using it I would never...

Do any of you web-pressman have a handy formula for calculating the length of paper left on a roll based on a caliper measurement of thickness? We are not "calculus-type" people around here and need an equation where we substitute the paper caliper, and core size into variables in an equation...

Werby, good idea. We've used these guys many times with little to no problems. Their pricing is great the the service sucks. We've always provided them files using our default gracol 07 profiles and it's been pretty trouble free until this job. I've tried calling with no luck...they apparently...

We recently outsourced a catalog to a vendor that printed it via web press. When we received the finished job I was rather unimpressed by the color throughout the catalog. It looked very "muddy" like too much ink was laid down. I'm wondering if this is something that we ought to have adjusted in...

We were in the same position several months ago...i.e. debating between the quad Xeon and the i7. In the end we went with the i7 system as it was more affordable. If you're running Visa/7 you definitely need a good GPU, for prices these days it's crazy not to get something with at least 512mb...
