    Ricoh killed my service contract during covid-19 now looking for advice on black and white machines.

    We've had good service with our Heidelberg (Ricoh) C901. It's currently about 5+ years old, and prints well. I'm finding it to be more problematic with heavy stocks lately, but it still does offset wonderfully. As far as I know, a Versifire would still be serviced by Ricoh techs within your...

    Epson P9000 Maintenance Tank

    I'm reluctant to mess with any kind of chip resetter anyway. I was just curious how long these tanks are supposed to last between replacements when the printer has a fairly light workload.

    Epson P9000 Maintenance Tank

    Hi All, Could I get some feedback as to how long these tanks last in your Epson before needing to be replaced? It seems like our first one (the one that came with the printer) took forever (a year?) before needing replacement. But now, one tank can barely go a month or two, with only light...

    Can You Get Coronavirus From the Mail?

    Cardboard for a day, and I believe I read somewhere that plastic was a little longer than that. Sending projects out wouldn't be the problem, the uncertainty lies with receiving packages. I've been setting all my packages on fire before I open them.

    No Lubricant....

    We have a Ricoh C901, and it's amusing how many times a problem will be magically resolved after being off overnight.

    The Excuse

    Rather than take (1) 15 minute break, I've decided to take (60) 15 second breaks.

    What's Driving Mac vs. PC Purchasing Today?

    Our Prepress dept. is all Mac. We used to have a single PC "just in case", but nobody ever used it. It's long gone now. The servers for print and digital are PC. Concerning design software, I believe Mac and PC are mostly even as far as usability and function. I think anyone could learn to...

    Why would a printer not want to receive a layered PDF?

    We recently received a layered PDF that was causing troubles when sending through for print. Looked like an overprint issue the artist neglected to handle properly. Additionally, it was taking Acrobat a long time just to open/display the 50mb PDF.

    QuarkXPress—Mac App Adds New Features

    Our Prepress Dept. has been using Quark 8 and CS6 for EVER. We have a single Creative Cloud subscription in case we need to work with someone's InDesign files. Almost everything from customers comes in as print-ready PDFs, JPGs etc. The only drawback I can think of to our prehistoric Quark is...

    problem with Epson surecolor P9000

    Sorry to hear about your trouble. Are you unable to do anything once you turn it on? If so, I would check all settings and turn off any auto-checks or auto-cleaning. We bought an extended warranty with ours, and I'm glad we did. I've had to call customer support twice within the last few...
