    Proof disclaimers

    We removed #2. It's either approved and we print, or it's not approved and they see another proof.

    Do you use a print shop management software?

    Nothing out there really fit our needs. We wanted to work the way we have always worked, but automate it. We built our own - php, mysql, and .fdf to generate Acrobat forms. Basic but does precisely what we need and we can tweak at any time. Linear view for each department or 2 week calendar view...

    Ricoh C7100's vs C7200's

    I wouldn't go 7100 unless you can get a GreenLine machine. 7200 is much better internally. I think if I had a C7200x with 5th color, I would put in silver and leave it. You can do a rainbow of metallic colors by putting silver down and overprinting CMY, including multiple golds. I see more value...

    Riso Comcolor GD 7330 aftermarket ink..worth it or not?

    Both cartridges contain 1000 ml of ink. So, it boils down to who is giving the most accurate and honest estimate of ink yield. I ask any users of OEM ComColor ink if they average 108k.

    It’s Still About Making Money

    I've been too busy to think about this much. Summer has finally presented a break. Customers: Dedicated buyers are smarter as far as digital print capabilities and deficiencies, but overall I think they are spread thin with multiple media and probably less knowledgeable on each facet. I think...

    Ricoh C7100 Banding Pattern ca. 17,5mm (ca. 0.7in) ???

    That's why I say that bearing issues can produce lines that don't match a roller diameter. It's the bind-release action that causes the lines. It is usually divisible from the roller diameter - half, third, quarter, etc.

    Ricoh C7100 Banding Pattern ca. 17,5mm (ca. 0.7in) ???

    The charge roller and the charge unit are two separate components?

    Ricoh C7100 Banding Pattern ca. 17,5mm (ca. 0.7in) ???

    I thought he already did that.

    Ricoh C7100 Banding Pattern ca. 17,5mm (ca. 0.7in) ???

    Hmm. Generally it is the back (gear side) that is stronger. However, it's still possible that there is a mechanical issue with the front, or it's just tricking us. Not knowing the specifics of that particular machine, it's difficult to advise precisely. I would remove and check carefully front...

    Ricoh C7100 Banding Pattern ca. 17,5mm (ca. 0.7in) ???

    I have seen a similar issue on another machine, not a Ricoh. The developer housing had to be changed because it was worn on the gear side allowing movement of the roller. There was something defective in one of the gears that caused the wear over time and eventually created the lines. Is it just...

    Absence of Just a Printer

    I just heard from Dan, and he is crazy busy. He has a few shot, but no time for editing. A nice problem to have.

    Absence of Just a Printer

    Let's hope he's just too darn busy to do a video. Or maybe he just doesn't have any fresh content that's worth making a video on. I quit youtube a long time ago when they changed all the requirements and quotas. I thought it pushed quantity over quality and I was right. I can't stand watching 30...

    Looking for a good freight carrier to ship my Xerox Versant 180

    A little late to the game, but I only trust MOE (Moving Office Equipment). Copiers are their specialty. Wrap and strap. All states. Insured for damage. 5 warehouse hubs. That said, for an auction, I would only list them for convenience of the buyer. Always let them arrange transportation.

    Realtor Buying Printer

    It's a bad deal. Way too much for the machine. That machine used, with a Fiery, should be no more than $20,000 in excellent condition, or about $420 a month. You will need electrical work to accommodate the machine. $$$ You will need a paper cutter (guillotine). $$$ You need to consider the...

    Riso Comcolor GD 7330 aftermarket ink..worth it or not?

    If you can't find a cheaper source for OEM ink, your only option to reduce cost is aftermarket ink. My thoughts on the oil and water mix are the same. I have not seen prints from this combination. That also brings questions about the transition to aftermarket ink. Ideally, you would like to...

    Riso Comcolor GD 7330 aftermarket ink..worth it or not?

    I don't think Epson is going to be any better for you. They are definitely targeted to enterprise accounts and the ink isn't much better in price. Upgrading the Riso will be no advantage. The engines are the same. Did you buy through an independent dealer? GM Supplies sells genuine Riso ink for...
