    Methods for reducing static on Duplo 646

    I point an Anti Static Ionizing fan at the feed section on my GW 8336 and it helped a lot with static. The C2S would be like bricks stuck together but the fan took care of it. Amazon.com

    Recieved an insane quote for Formax ColorMax8 parts

    The rollers on these things are like an eraser on a pencil, they do wear down quicker than other rollers from what I have found. I am babying mine along with over 1.5 million clicks till the Quadient Mach 7 gets released. I have found roller rejuvenator was eating these type rollers and I...

    How does your company file projects once complete?

    We put all relevant info in the MIS system so anyone looking up a past job will see issues off the bat on the last job, also have an area to carry forward job "gotchas" for that customer. Then we file by the date the job was dropped at the PO or customer picked up, usually all the job info is...

    Is Antivirus Software Still Needed?

    If this is for business I would recommend looking into Malwarebytes Threatdown, it has ransomware rollback capabilities among a host of other things. https://www.threatdown.com/

    Recieved an insane quote for Formax ColorMax8 parts

    You don't mention what your actual issue is, but I am guessing it is feeding and your tires are worn down? How many clicks do you have on it? One thing I did that helped a lot was flipping the envelope around and feeding it flap last for a majority of our jobs where we don't need to run SEF.

    Swapping out year old KM7090 for Ricoh 7500

    I still run a 7110sx with 5th color and seldom use it, I also got the 7200e so I "could" upgrade it to 5th color if needed. I am sure they make the same thing in the 7500. I would be leary if you can't find many other customers in the area with production machines, Ricoh let our local tech...

    Ricoh 7200 Image Quality Issues

    Does the same thing happen on all sizes of paper from 8.5x11 up to 13x19?

    New to the digital printing

    Should be a Ricoh dealer or Direct in your area, look them up. Another thought would be going inkjet if quality doesn't have to be 100% and you think your print volume will grow: Merlin K146c - MCS Pro

    New to the digital printing

    At those amounts I would suggest at a minimum the 5300 and keep the 5100 as a backup. If doing 11x17 you would benefit from stepping up to a green line (refurbished) 7200 from Ricoh. At those volumes you should be able to support it if this is pay for print.

    You need to upgrade so you can print 50k 11x17 2up and cut them.

    Water type streaks in printing jobs

    I would push the tech to tell me what in the paper would cause that issue.

    BW inkjet envelope printer

    This will give you an idea of what MCS can do, not sure it would be the right fit for a reseller but talk to them:

    BW inkjet envelope printer

    What are you looking to print? You have options in Black only, the cheapest would be HP45 cartridge based solutions like the AP3, but if you will be printing HQ graphics they are not the best fit as you will have gaps in between the cartridges.

    Excessive revisions and proofs

    A good proofing software will keep track of all the changes in a history or notes field so the customer will have that in front of them everytime they request a change through the software. You can then put in that change 1 of 3 and 2 of 3 and 3 of 3 so they know ahead of time.

    Still have vertical lines going through all colors OKI C931

    Just as a side note, I used the 931 for envelope printing, I did not do many solids on it.

    Still have vertical lines going through all colors OKI C931

    Take a look at the transfer belt to see if it is marked up, I would get that when toner would build up on the front of the transfer belt cleaner. If you can open the front door while it is in the middle of printing you can check the image on the transfer belt, if that looks ok then look at...

    Xante/Ricoh vs Mach 6 Envelope Press
