    Canon 7010VP vs Nexpress 2500 reconditioned

    Justin, They are going to rebuild it. They are not withholding that service. We just have to come up with a date/time. They said the machine will be down an extended period of time. We are trying to coordinate a time. Honestly, on the Kodak, we will be running 12 x 18 or 13 x 19. The...

    Canon 7010VP vs Nexpress 2500 reconditioned

    Hi All, We have had a Canon 7000VP nearing the end of lease and for the most part it served us well. We print on predominantly heavy stock (12 pt gloss cover or higher) and on a large sheet size 12 x 18 or 13 x 19. Almost all our work is full color and we average around 125,000 to 150,000...

    Producing Snap Pack Mailers

    We have been toying with the idea of producing snap pack mailers. I understand we might have to do the finishing (perforating and gluing) offline. The problem is I am not sure if this is something that requires specialized equipment or what is involved. The content will be variable data..so...

    Canon 6010 color problem

    We have a 7000VP (pretty similar to the 6010) and we have that issue all the time. These machines are not offset and while you can probably get close, it is very tough to get an exact match in color all the time (from our experience). We calibrate about 2-3 times a day as we find that the...
