    Ricoh 9100 Ghosting?

    How long have you had your Machine? Only complaint I have about the Advanced Operator Training is that it was done within a month of our install. I now believe that it should be done at least 3-4 months after install so you get to learn the bugs and what type of issues might need to be...

    Ricoh 9100 Ghosting?

    Yes we finally got there. Tech was in on Friday and we started Lowering 88 (fusing temp) and 90 (fusing pressure roller temp) in increments of 2 until the problem completely vanished. I was a little surprised at how far we turned the temps down before the issue was resolved. I was half expecting...

    Ricoh 9100 Ghosting?

    Yes the lines are in the feed direction. Guess I have not been extremely clear in this post (been getting frustrated with this one) there are 2 problems on the gloss prints. Ghosting and the lines that run through the prints. I have sorta managed to get rid of the lines but the ghosting...

    Ricoh 9100 Ghosting?

    Here is a pic of the Problem I am having along with the ghosting on gloss. this problem seems to go away with other stocks tho. The ghosting is very hard to get a full sheet pic of. I did lower the temp, increased the gap and ran the smoothing roller. My tech thinks it might be a cooling belt??

    Ricoh 9100 Ghosting?

    Bah Humbug (revising my last statement) it appears to be significantly worse when I run it on Blazer Than anything else. I tried some titan gloss...still there but better and then some everyday digital gloss and it completely went away so i guess it is a paper issue and not mechanical. Anybody...

    Fuzzy White Text on Maroon Background

    If the sheet was taken 4-Out of a parent then it is for sure wrong grain. I am not saying that it is why you are having issues but I have found over the years that grain (especially on heavier stocks) can effect registration on very small type and small items that are built

    Ricoh 9100 Ghosting?

    It is 100# Cover and It is definitely not a layering issue because I built the file so I know whats in it. The pic is just a small sample but pretty much all type and images are having the same result and it doesn't do it on every sheet in exactly the same way. It is beginning to feel like an...

    Fuzzy White Text on Maroon Background

    Might sound dumb but what is the grain direction of your sheet? I have had times when small knocked out type would appear to be out of register if the grain direction was wrong for the press

    Ricoh 9100 Ghosting?

    Does anyone on here have any experience with what appears to be Ghosting on a 9100. It only happens on gloss stock. It appears to be pulling the image from one side and transferring it to the other. I have tried various paper settings, setting gaps longer/shorter, turning voltage Up/down and...

    New Ricoh ProC9100 Operator

    I have timed it at 16 sheets a minute in Banner tray duplex mode if that helps and registration is a bit tail whippy but not too bad

    New Ricoh ProC9100 Operator

    I'm Duplexing 13 X 27 400 GSM on our 9100 and it eats it up all day long. We installed in July and really am VERY pleased with the machine. When she gets buggy it can be a challenge but slowly figuring out all her lil quirks

    Recommend me quoting software

    We use Estimating Software called PowerQuote. Pretty in-expensive and handles everything from offset, digital and wide format and can even do your accounting but we don't use it for that. Seems to work pretty well once you get all of your specific info and rates entered in.

    PLATES: chemicals OR processless ?

    From what I have seen I would agree with Wonderings. The majority of the emulsion appears to be pulled off onto the Stock. There is a little contamination that happens but the operators haven't complained once they got the developing down to a Science. (We run Fuji Plates)

    Suggestion on Inexpensive Coil Punch and Inserter

    We have a Rhin-O-Tuff with replaceable Dies and also run some Akiles on the lighter duty stuff. Heres a link to a place where I think our Punch guy gets most his stuff https://www.probinding.com/SubCategoryProducts.aspx?SubCategoryID=2

    Printer turns down work

    Agree 1000% A business Owner should have the right to destroy their reputation should they choose that path. Might be a stupid path but that should be their choice. I believe however that there is a HUGE difference between basing that decision on the color of ones skin versus religious or...
