    Printer turns down work

    Agree with dabob. The owner of the shop where I work has "passed" on The Communist Party of Washington State. A White Supremacist Group and a few others the like. Business should Always retain full control over whom they will or will not do work with and for. In this politically correct version...

    Marketing A Printshop

    One of the largest challenges we face is that over the last 10-15 years with the advent of new streamlined technologies we have scaled down (employee wise) to a leaner crew while still producing the same, if not more work. We no longer have any outside sales reps and solely rely on our loyal...

    Marketing A Printshop

    Just throwing out a new topic here to see what types of opinions may be out there. I am a (pre-press/digital press operator/graphic designer) at a smaller ish print shop that has offset, digital, wide format and graphic design services under one roof. Over the past few years we have seen the...

    Command Workstation 6

    Installed on my Mac side and left it at 5 on the Ricoh side. Takes a little getting used to but overall functions the same as V5 as far as I have found. Seems more like new window dressing than any Major upgrade but thats just my O2

    Rampage settings

    I was told by our FUJI guy that once your rampage box goes boom that you are basically screwed. Made a mirror of it and put it on an external just in case we need to have a box built. Unless of course we eventually move to a newer Rip. If your drive is failing I would definitely try to get it...

    Ricoh 9110 Operators???????

    Thanks for all the input so far. My original plan was to go check out the 7110 but it struggled with a certain color that I print a butt load of so we jumped over to the 9110 and it didn't even bat an eye. I can honestly say I haven't seen anything even come close to it's print quality. The...

    Ricoh 9110 Operators???????

    Just finished with a demo on a Ricoh 9110 and I was EXTREMELY IMPRESSED. Any users out there that can share quick pros and cons that you have found. Need to replace an old beat up KM C7000 soon and need opinions from experienced operators. Already checked out the V2100 and it was nice but the...

    MGI Meteor Unlimited Color Press

    So my KM Rep has been trying to convince us that the MGI Meteor is the greatest thing since sliced bread. Truthfully I have never even heard of it until about a month ago. He wants to fly me down to Florida to do a demo. Just curious if anybody out there has any experience with these machines...

    New KM AccurioPress

    Well thats kind of a bummer to hear.....The registration was so good at my demo but I didn't run much in the way of quantity. Well I guess it cant be much worse than my two KM's

    New KM AccurioPress

    We started out about 12 years ago with Fuji/Xerox but the service in our area was so bad that we could barely keep the equipment running. Made the switch to KM about 6 years ago because the 2 Service guys Were AMAZING. Since then one has retired and the other probably isn't to far away so I have...

    New KM AccurioPress

    Demo didn't go well. Plane broke down and by the time I got there i had 45 minutes before they had to haul me back to the airport. They are taking me to Aneheim next week to see everything Konica can throw at me including an MGI. Just got back from Fuji in Chicago and have to say that the...

    Where to start .....

    Finishing off of any Toner Based machine can always be a challenge. My Bindery Department absolutely despises it ..... but hey thats what the get paid for.;) We have had decent luck with running Tri-Creaser Scoring collars on the Stahl folders but we have yet to find that one cure all solution...

    Where to start .....

    Mail Guru is 1000% Correct. Xerox, KM, Ricoh and Canon are all going to run you about the same $$$$ on an entry level production machine. However SERVICE is everything!!! If your area is lacking in great Techs from any of the aforementioned names I would steer clear. Meet with the service...
