Just wondering if anyone has tried or is having success running 12x18 11 pt magnecote or similiar product thru their machine. Before we purchased the machine the sales dept. told us that it could run it and we ran a few demo sheets thru it just fine. Of course, now that we've installed it and...

Before we purchased the C901, our choice was between it and a Canon 7000. In doing research and talking to current Canon customers in our area, there was really only one choice. Ricoh. We have been very happy with our machine now for 3 months. As with all machines a bit of a learning curve on...

I agree with Jay, although I do not consider it fun dealing with Digital "used car salesman.(sorry if I offended anyone but that's sure what it feels like.)" Check and see what others are paying around the country. Determine what you can afford, then, Play hardball with these guys. Let them...

Market Pricing Market Pricing Not to long ago we were in the same boat as you. Somewhere on this forum someone mentioned a company out of Florida that does price comparisons on the different machines. After being very frustrated, believe it or not I would rather shop for a used car than a...

We've had the 901 for about 3 months and it runs great. Print quality is very sellable. Our customers are very happy with the quality. But like any other machine, you'd better have the service to keep it running. We also looked at the 720 and BizHub and after doing alot of research, price...

We are mainly and offset shop, but, we have a ricoh 901, Canon imagerunner 3200 and Canon 8500.

PaperPro, Sorry to hear about your troubles with stock. We to installed our 901 about 3 weeks ago and so far not one single problem. The machine runs great. We have ran Linen stock both text and cover, a large variety of gloss text and cover, offset, Vellum, Plastic stock, Magnecote. We...

Just wondering if there was anybody in the SLC, Utah area using this system. What do you think of it? We are looking for a CTP that can run Chem free plates that can do 4 up. I would like to speak to someone currently using this system and find out the pros and cons of it, and maybe drop by...

Why does your machine have to be new? Financing? There are a lot of great 1 and 2 color offsets on the market that would do the job just fine and at a very affordable price. I've seen a lot of 2 color Ryobi's on the market, low usage very low price, in the $4-6,000 range that would last for...

Take a look at the Ricoh 901. In our recent demo we ran 14 pt stock duplexed and the color and registration were dead on.

Our test runs on the 720S went very well. The one main draw back for us was the use of toner oil. You can definitely see the difference in quality when you compare it to the 901, or the xerox 700. Therefore, we decided not to consider it as you could definitely see lines in the solids on...

We have been in the same boat for the last year or so, looking at upgrading our digital to a new faster more reliable machine. We have ran the Xerox 700 and the Ricoh 720s and 900s. All the machines had good points as well as bad. As far as the oil Ricoh uses to image, it was a huge factor in...

Keith, Glad to hear your having a better experience with your Ilumina than we had. Just out of curiousity how are your drums holding out switching from 24 pt to small cards to envelopes. Our experience was not very good. Very short drum life. Between using their HIGH priced consumables and...

Thanks for your input. We are a commercial printer looking at expanding our digital market. Sounds like we need to look at the Ricoh 901 possible for faster prints.

We are thinking of purchasing the 6000VP. Any comments on it's overall reliability. Just curious what past or current owners think of the machine. Hows your service been? Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

When comparing the 2 machines you should compare Xerox 700 and the Ricoh 720. When Ricoh presented us with different options they told us that the 700 wasnt even close to the 720 and gave us a price for a lesser unit. When you look at the 2 machines and what they have on the insides, these...

Looking at purchasing either a Ricoh 720s or the Xerox 700. I know that the 720 will take almost anything you can feed it up to 300 GSM. How does the Xerox handle cover 12x18 like Carolina 12 and 14 pt c1s, 80# offset opaque etc.. What has any of your experiences been when it comes to running...

We print letterhead on our ryobi 3200 w/T-head all the time and have never had a problem with it being ran thru a laser printer. Regular oil base ink. Usually Toyo.

Our QMDI Plus also requires a temp. controlled room. We keep it from 68-72 farenheit all the time and it operates great. I have seen other DI's installed in rooms were there is no temperature control and as soon as the room heats up the toning starts and will not go way until the temperature...

Were looking at leasing a new Digital Printer. In the past we have always purchased our machines. Anyone have any good leasing companies that they could recommend?
