    Novice - buying a versant 80

    Spoke to a couple of companies this morning, and it sounds as though we can get monoprints at around 0.5p per click, which makes the idea a little more feasible. Just waiting on some more information. Thanks again to everyone who has posted on here. Really appreciated!

    Ok going to look at cpc! See what the costs come in at. 99% of the work will be printing sra3 sheets double sided. Less than 5% coverage. So the clicks will be the highest part of the cost I guess.

    Thanks why not. Stupid question here… clicks = cost of toner and service right? Seams daft to pay clicks on a used machine? Suppose this is the big difference between consumer and commercial print.

    Thanks for the heads up. The thought was to buy a refurbished machine and buy toner/parts as needed. Just doing our own prints - 30,000 a month or so. was thinking we could keep away from a contract and just buy out right. I’ll read through the forum. Thanks for the reply.
