    Ricoh C9200+C7200 v Xerox Iridesse

    I'll agree with having two machines being better, but I'm not sure which engine you're comparing to on the textured stocks. The Iridesse is the next iteration of the Colorpress engine, and we've always been very happy with how our Colorpress prints on textured stocks.

    Job Status Update

    He only needs 100 pieces, but he's insisting that we can't run the job 4-color and it must be run as a 20 PMS spot job. You know, the colors really need to "POP!"

    Panel to panel bleed - whats the terminology?

    A mistake, or a badly folded piece :)

    Saddle Stitch booklet maker for a small shop

    With 80# text and a 12pt coated cover, without cracking the cover? They must have made the old inline finishers better than the current ones...

    Can I upgrade Fiery?

    I've been using 6 since January, and I still can't stand it. Getting in and out of the device center to get to the profiles and spot color utility is really clunky. Also, for some reason some of the job options can't be brought onto the "Quick Access" tab anymore. It might look prettier for the...

    Paper straws see ‘unprecedented growth’ as restaurants ditch plastic

    Oh man. I mountain bike, and one of the place I go a lot has a ton of walkers/hikers, and a lot of them bring their dogs. I can't tell you the level of rage I feel whenever I see a plastic bag full of dog crap laying on the side of the trail (and I see them quite often), or better yet, hanging...

    Which one is a cost-effective color printer?

    How many colors? There's a printer not too far from me that has a 10-color Heidelberg. They're prices are pretty snazzy.

    Saddle Stitch booklet maker for a small shop

    You said it was an 80 page book = 20 forms + cover. And you said it's 80# text with a 12pt cover? That's a decently thick saddle book. I have a little hand stitcher that I use for making proofs, and it would never be able to put a stitch through that. Again, I just don't see any way you're...

    Saddle Stitch booklet maker for a small shop

    I don't really think you're going to find much that will fold and stitch with the budget you have. That budget sounds more like a table-top or stand up, hand-stitch machine. Especially for a book that size. We have a $65K C.P. Bourg stitcher and even that would take some adjusting to stitch a...

    Which side to print first/second on high coverage?.

    On our digital machines (iGen 5 & colorpress 1000) I always try to run the heaviest coverage last when I'm running duplex, mainly to help with any scratching you might get when it's duplexing. On the oddball job we've had to run one side at a time for whatever reason, I also run the lightest...

    KBA Karat 75

    I worked at a shop that had one, but I never saw it run. It was wrapped in plastic when I started working there until they finally found someone to buy it 2 years later. They said it was a dog to run. They said the setup time on a job was absolutely outrageous - like 2 hours or something to...

    Methods to minimize paper waste?

    Wait, do you mean this isn't common practice? We do this with all our jobs & then put them in the paper stretcher after we run them to stretch them back to full size.
