Well at risk of having one of you guys breaking into our shop, we received a shipment of toner that we've been waiting on for a month this morning. Couldn't have came at a better time either because the end of the month is always our busiest.

It was a lot easier to get toner for our old 1000i than it is for our versant 3100. We used to get shipments come in on pallets for our 1000i but were lucky if we can order over 6-8 of something with the versant.

I feel like this is going to be like the great toilet paper raid of 2020. Everyone is going to start ordering toner so they're stocked up which will cause a shortage even worse than to start with.

Looked at your profile and says Lafayette. Lafayette Indiana? If so were located in Southern Indiana. Washington, IN actually.

If a tech came in a tried to take toner off our shelves right now it’d be considered fighting terms lol.

I don’t even understand this comment

Sounds like an adjustment that can be made in your settings. Optimize for speed would be the first place to start. Then there should be an NVM that can be changed where it won't adjust so often.

I appreciate it! Although id feel bad because I currently wouldn't know when I could ship it back to someone as it doesn't seem like stock is even available. And id hate for someone else to run out because they shipped some to me!

Versant 3100 and we are located in the Midwest

So I have been waiting on a shipment of toner now for 3 weeks and the order still hasn't been processed. Ive been in contact with our local rep and he has been working on it, but I keep getting emails from the escalation teams that the toner hasn't been released yet and there's no stock to...

We’ve been waiting for 2+ weeks on our toner. Down 1 each for our versant

2 undershirt sleeves if you are driving in the middle of no where and know you wont make it to the next town. At least that's what a friend told me.....

I think your process is a little wrong. You should find a laminator that will flush cut. Fujipla 3222 I think is a small shop type system. Might be a little slow for your application. A d&K with knife would be ideal. But you should print the 13x19 sheet, laminate and then cut out the cards. I...

Watched a quick video on both. Just from watching I would go with the Bourg. The Horizon looked painstakingly slow and it required 2 passes and was not an automatic cover feeder. On our Digibinder we have to manually put on the covers but it is a single pass. When you get in a groove it can go...

We do this with 5.5x8.5 books but never with 8.5x11. Granted we now have the inline slitter to do full bleed but I feel like this would be a big slowdown of production and not as useful for money. Toner getting laid on paper is what creates the value. we've never really had a problem with spines...

Im not familiar with Ricoh, but it sounds like someone doesn't know what they're talking about on Ricoh's end about the machine not being able to differentiate between jobs. Thats a load of crap. We run mixed color and b&w on our Versant 3100 all the time and never have an issue. Actually just...

We bought a Sterling Digibinder a few years back. We are happy with the purchase. Like you it does sit for weeks at a time without being fired up and we haven't had a problem so far with that. We have done coated stocks and uncoated with their glue and haven't had a problem with pages pulling...

Do you have the 2 sided trimmer with the buffer module? If you do it should run at rated speed. If you don’t have it then it will decrease production dramatically. Our old 1000i with production booklet maker was slow with it. Our 3100 runs fast because the buffer module allows it to keep running...

I would fold each sheet then collate them if its just 10 booklets. That way you know the exact spine placement when using the long arm stapler and will have a flatter laying book. We used to have a problem with a booklet maker missing staples every now and then. We kept a long arm around just to...

That makes sense as well. I know we go through drums like crazy sometimes. But our tech's haven't asked about our toner batches. Im living life on the edge right now with no drums on the shelf. When I need one ill be on the horn complaining since my last order is still backordered form almost a...
