    Epson 9800 "empty" ink cartridges

    Here's a tip to help save some money, and you get what you paid for in the first place.

For a few...

    Agfa Azura rinse gum unit problems

    We have an Azura C125 rinse gum unit (processor) that is about 4 years old now and we're having a couple problems with it. First issue is that Agfa changed the chemistry of the TS Gum a while back and since then we're getting a thick blue sludge in our system that is a real hassle to deal...

    Your Experience required for Printing Job Cost Estimation and Management Software

    We've used various solutions over the years, and as has been said before "don't reinvent the wheel". We used to use a home-brewed solution using Microsoft Excel; It worked well, but was not easy for other people to use. Then we used ePace; expensive and steep learning curve. We ditched ePace and...

    The difference between Prepress and Premedia?

    I've always thought that Premedia is just a modern term for the Prepress operator. As Gordo pointed out: "not all files go to press.", so a new title was needed for the prepress operator, and premedia fits well. I might be working on a job for output on our Canon digital press, or a job that is...

    Kodak Magnus 800 air filter source needed

    Thanks Vald, I did google and contacted the guy that you're linking to. He has used filters... I don't know any other language, so China is out, BUT, I like your idea on modifying the filter to take an aftermarket filter! I'll look into that, thanks!

    Kodak Magnus 800 air filter source needed

    Hello: We have a Kodak Magnus 800 that has an external air filter, part no. 57-8792D-B. Does anyone know where I can get one of these filters? I looked on the Kodak web site, but I couldn't find it; they may require a service agreement... I'm not sure. I don't need it yet, but we've had this...

    How long to Archive?

    We archive all our work to DVD as well; 1 on site, 1 off site. I don't think we've ever had to use the 2nd copy, but it's still worth doing. We use DiskCatalogMaker for our database, it comes with Toast, and works well.

    I am considering getting an Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) for my Mac at work. Has anyone out there done this successfully and if so, do you have any recommendations?

    Value of an Epson 10600 that doesn't work

    We have an Epson 10600 that has sat on the floor, in our way, for about a year now. It needs service (not too sure of the exact problem, but I think the print heads need to be changed), service on one of these machines is not cheap, and we have an Epson 9800 that we bought to replace the 10600...
