    Idea of Mono Click Costs

    Does the $625 include the machine lease or is that just maintenance + clicks?

    Thinking of buying the Xerox 700

    80#CVR == 220gsm Free Flow is Xerox's Branded RIP Don't know on the Glossiness of the Fiery vs. Creo. I used a KM6500 when they were brand new and hated it. I have heard it has had all of the issues I had addressed since then, but I am still partial to Xerox.

    Thinking of buying the Xerox 700

    I have the X700 through a local dealer... One thing to note, if you are looking at purchasing the X700, MAKE SURE it is through Xerox Direct. My dealer is claiming they are losing several thousand dollars a month on my machine. (We run about 150,000 12x18 sides a month.) We have had to get a...

    Xerox 700 Parts Issues & Productivity Plus

    Who is your service provider? Is it Xerox Direct or a dealer? We have a 700 that we got in December and have been running the crap out of it ever since. The dealer that is servicing it is claiming it's losing several thousand dollars a month on our maintenance. (I used 20 toner carts from...

    Deciding between Xerox and Canon

    I had a DC260 when it was nearly new. I loved the image quality, but god help you when it came time to cut... I was having 2.7mm on Text weight papers and 4+mm on Covers. (THATS PER SIDE, NOT FRONT TO BACK!). I now have the X700 and love everything about it except the dealer I am working...

    Xerox 7002 & 8002

    LordAssoc... I am currently having an arguement with a coworker on what to look at. I said go with the 7000/2, they said 2 refurbed DC5000's or KM6501's. I would assume that based on your experience you'd go with the 2 machines vs. the one 700x? Thanks, Jerod.

    Xerox 700 & Creo - what else should I consider

    What is your application? (Booklets, Tri-Folds, Postcards etc.) I have the X700 with a FreeFlow and while the FreeFlow was a challenge to set up, I now love it and find it to be a decently stable box. We are looking at buying a KM6501 as well. I will tell you, if the 6501 is anything like...

    Interesting Xerox 700 Issue...

    Follow up... Follow up... I don't know if you follow Larry Hunt's newletter, but the Nov Issue had a quote for a X700, FreeFlow, Profiler Kit (mine doesn't) 1 drawer oversize high cap, and professional finisher for $42,200. You can't tell me the 2nd drawer and the Rip are $37,000 in upgrades!

    Interesting Xerox 700 Issue...

    I am sorry, but you didn't read the thread start to finish... They are requiring I buy a used4110 with several million clicks already on it for $18,000 cash (I don't want it!). I have a contract in place for $0.046/click yet they think they can change the click and monthly payment despite the...

    Interesting Xerox 700 Issue...

    Update!!! Update!!! A Continuation to the saga that is our X700... I received an email the other day from the VP of Sales... This is their "solution". Short story, the click goes from $0.046 to $0.049. Payment goes up $50.00/month. Buy a USED black and white that I can get on the Repo...

    Interesting Xerox 700 Issue...

    Unfortunately 7.x is not a sustainable click charge. We are competing in the .com market and the margins are very thin. Average sale price with labor, overhead, bindery, paper, shipping, and printing is somewhere in the $0.13/LTR Side range. I have an offer on the table from KM for a 6501...

    Has Anyone Sued Their Digital Press Manufacturer for Downtime?

    I did sue my service provider... I did sue my service provider... Long story short... A certain brand new 65 page a minute digital machine was released 3-4 years ago and I foolishly bought one... (The second install in the state.) 5-6 months later, after printing 4 calibration sheets at the...

    Any printers happy with Xerox 7002 or 8002?

    Is the 7002/8002 using an oiled fuser? Is the 7002/8002 using an oiled fuser? I know the 5000, 7000 and the 8000 all used fuser oil yet I can't seem to find if the "02" line is still using the oil or going to the X700 line's oilless toner. Thanks!

    Interesting Xerox 700 Issue...

    First of all let me say I ABSOLUTELY LOVE our X700. It was installed on Dec 12, 2009 and as of Feb 15, 2010 has 430,000 12x18 clicks on it. The thing is very stable and handles text weights very well. (Cover stocks are not great but it is "fast plastic" and not a X5000.) A little...

    No 700 Toner?

    Seems less elusive now... Seems less elusive now... I don't seem to be having the problems finding the toner... Im just not able to print 100%K full width. The back side of the machine is 100% but the operator side is about 80%. Going on 1.5 weeks with this issue... Jerod.

    KM6501 vs c900 vs X700

    I have had the 6500 (predecessor to 6501) and didn't like it. I got offered a smokin deal on a 6500 demo and turned it down about an hour ago. The thing I don't like on the KM Color boxes, is then tend to easily trash drums and the charge wires constantly need to be watched as they will cause...

    Xerox DocuColor 7000AP/8000AP - Looking for feedback.

    What is the configuration on the 700 you have? What kind of finisher? I saw another post saying that the roller marks were from the finisher and that the Hi Cap Stacker would mark prints. I am curious because I am looking at the 700 with the Hi Cap. Thanks, Jerod.

    C6500 vs. DC700... Coated GLS TXT Quality

    I'd love a "bigger" unit, but I cant find one that works out financially. I know that if the CED says x and the machine can't perform to that standard I have a case. That being said, I've already been in one lawsuit over a copier, and I'd like to avoid that again.
