KM recently discontinued TN-015 toner, which we use in our Pro951 B/W machine and our dealer can no longer source this new. They are currently decanting TN-014 into empty TN-015 bottles for us, we know this works as both use the same developer and we used decanted TN-014 for a few months after...

Can anyone explain what I'm doing wrong here? - by no means a colour expert and would love to learn more if time permitted, but I think I understand the basics... Using InDesign, I have placed a client's logo which is C3,M71,Y100,K0 I then created a rectangle, created a colour to the above spec...

I couldn't find any discussions on this subject, so I'll start one... We are looking to start printing ID cards for an existing client. Initially a thousand or so cards, then to provide a small amount for new and replacement cards each week. We've no prior experience with PVC cards, apart...

We have been asked to print C6 (114mm x 162mm) gummed envelopes which must have a diamond flap as opposed to a pocket flap. The PF-707m shortest substrate length is 139.7mm, exceeding than the 114m short edge of the C6 envelope, so if we are going to do this, the envelope is going to have to...

A customer has asked us for this 260GSM Recycled Ivory Fleck Card, which is available at various consumer Arts & Crafts stockists in A4, however we are looking for either this or something comparable from a UK merchant/trade supplier in SRA3. Our merchant (Premier Paper Group) have offered...

To date, our typical work has mostly been using regular coated white stocks and uncoated stocks, white and tints and occasionally synthetics. We have a new customer for cards & notelets who only wants recycled substrates and likes 'Arts & Crafts'/Rustic papers like Ivory Flecked, etc. I have...

Our Pro951 has a PF-706 paper deck and FS-532 finisher. Printing on A3 80GSM Navigator - the same substrate we always use and run circa 80k sides each month. All new wraps opened & loaded today, from the same pallet of paper. The job is output to the main tray, with no finishing, no...

Does anyone know how to display the meter reading on the DBM150 booklet maker?

As attached photo - when printing on heavy stocks (300GSM and above) we've started getting flaking of solids on the leading edge (affecting as far as 12mm in from the edge) It doesn't appear to be drum related, as it doesn't happen on light stocks, not is it colour related. Our regular tech is...

We recently installed a PI-502 on our B/W Pro951, to insert colour pages produced on the C4080. The unit will insert sheets from PI Trays 1 and 2 before the first page, after a printed page if there is another printed page to follow, but not after the last printed page. We've tried using 'Cover...

We don't have the PI-502 Post Inserter on our Pro951, however the driver facilitates inserting blank sheet/s after specified pages, from a paper tray (pre-engine). I have used this occasionally for inserting tinted slip sheets between sets. IIRC it doesn't count as a click. Any thoughts on...

We have an Ideal 4850-95EP and on the last couple of jobs an issue had developed when cutting 250GSM silk with a gloss laminate to both sides. I've been trying to look at what's different to before and have come up with these variables, the third of which seems the most likely. the blade was...

KM announces new mid-range AccurioPress models: Printweek KM (EU site)

We have a couple of Magnapunch 1's and a good collection of die-sets, covering all the popular finishing options we're ever asked for. My understanding was these original Magnapunch dies only fit the MP1, however talking with an engineer yesterday (not a GBC guy, but well versed on all the...

I'm looking at numbering several thousand of a single page PDF B/W form. We have the KM Pro951 with 1250/1052 PS driver (v.5.0.663) Whilst I can do this in Indesign and give the machine a 3,000 page PDF, I'm exploring the potentially much simpler way of adding numbering within the post script...

Wondering if anyone has come across this issue (our dealer is on the case but awaiting response from KM dept. on festive break) hence after a quick fix. This is on our new C4080 with IC-609 controller, although I imagine the principle is the same on the last generation machines. Within...

Does anyone have any thoughts on this? The stock is standard self adhesive office grade laser labels, fed face up from Tray 4 on the PF-706 deck and output face up on the FS-532 for the straightest path. The scenario is as below and happens regularly with this repeat job. Requested 10 sets...

Looks like these are imminent, with EFI and Energy Star quick off the mark, in advance of a KM press release. A reliable source mentioned had it not been for Covid, the 40nn series machines would have been launched earlier this year.
