Does anyone have a supplier for A5 blank tab sheets? Am in EU but was previously ordering from UK. Last order was from Scotia, but they are no more. Previously also ordered from Tabbers but they just don't follow up on enquiries. It's at the point now where I'm looking at tab cutting...

Hi folks, I'm looking for some recommendations for paper available within the EU. specifically the following: - Textured off-white/ivory/cream cover stock. 250-360gsm. SRA3. We have some very old stock Paperlinx Ivory White which is great, but no longer available. It has a kind of...

Hi all, I'm digitizing some very old publications, and I've 'scanned' the pages using a DSLR. I need to compile them into a PDF and align the pages consistently. Some of the scans are off centre by a CM or two and they're not consistent. So I want to align the pages so that they are...

Hi all, Contracts are up for renewal this year and Totalflow Prep is being discontinued, hence looking for a new makeready/workflow solution. Back in 2020 we looked at PrismaPrepare, AccurioPro Flux and RSA ReadyPrint. Is there anyone on here with up to date experience of these or other...

I have a Ricoh C5310 and occasionally will run a few schoolphotos etc off. And i'm always disappointed by the end result which tends to look a bit dull, and often a bit mottled or blotchy. I'm printing onto Xerox Colortech+ Gloss, and am selecting fiery Coated Glossy output profile. I'm...

Hi all, This may sound like a bit of a dumb question but I am still very ignorant about how to calculate cutting points for imposed/ganged up items onto larger sheets. When doing something straightforward like a single image on a larger sheet not ganged up then I will do the following...

Suddenly there's no laser/optical cutting guide on my cutter and before I get an engineer out I was wondering if anyone has encountered this before?

So I have a pdf which is a scan of an old book. It does not use layers, but instead each page contains two images, one atop the other. The lowest is the background image of the page, and the highest is the scanned image of the text. If I have several books scanned in this way and I want to...

Hi all, This feels like a really dumb question.. I need to print ten copies of a document, and I've been given a separate pdf with ten different personalised cover pages in it. I want to quickly print the documents with the cover pages in front of them, but I can't figure out how to automate...

Scratching my head a bit here E-47 fiery on a Ricoh c5310. No issues reported on the machine or in command workstation. Can use it completely as normal via command workstation on a windows 10 PC. The fiery printer driver on the same machine though reports that the machine has a door open and...

We've got some equipment and we'd like to put some corporate logo stickers onto them to make them easily identifiable as being our property. Probably 2x2cm in size, and probably on some kind of hard-wearing transparent substrate. I immediately thought I'll just contract it out to a sticker...

I have a task where I need to split some large pdf's into separate files. Think 500 page document split into 300 files. I am splitting them based on bookmarks, but this is taking absolutely ages to process in acrobat pro on a beast of a PC, and I suspect it is due to document overhead and the...

According to EFI our Ricoh C5310 does not support A5 tab printing. Ricoh demoed us A5 tab printing on the C5210, C5310, C7200, C9210 and we do it regularly now on our C5310 and it works well. Were printing from Totalflow Prep into Command Workstation. I would like to also use A5 tabs in Fiery...

The drive belt on our GBC EP28 Pro comb punch has gone and Acco/GBC are saying the machine is discontinued and no parts are available. It's just a rubber belt and looks like a fairly generic component, I'd be surprised if it's a proprietary component specific only to that machine. Many of you...

We tend to use big rolls of bubble wrap for filling voids in boxes and wrapping more delicate stuff for shipping. I have been thinking about getting a small low volume air cushion inflater machine to use instead of bubble wrap but then I also saw there are now paper air cushions available as...

So I have a Ricoh c5310, with the SR5120 booklet finisher. I do not have a folding unit. The booklet finisher will of course do some folding. However, I would really like to get it to fold unbound simplex A4 sheets lengthways. That does not appear to be a supported size/dimension for the...

I've encountered a situation where a hand signed document needs an overprint but feeding it through a laser printer is erasing the signature. I believe this is because the signature was made using erasable/washable ink and the heat from the fusing process is just evaporating it. Only solution...

This has happened twice now, first attempt at booklet 62 of 300 and the second on booklet 63. It fails to start the next copy, the blue status light flashes, lots of fans etc are staying active but nothing is happening. I have to restart the fiery and send the job from scratch. Any ideas?

I will be printing some A4 booklets (centre stapled, printed onto SRA3 with 3 side offline trim). However I'm not entirely sure what I should specify for bleeds. Am I right in thinking that the binding edge does not require bleed as it will not be trimmed? Should I then ask for a three sided...

I saw a Peleman Flat Bed Foil Printer in a store and the owner gave me a quick demo. I am thinking about getting one, primary use is for gold foil cover text on hard bound documents. Think bound thesis but in textured hard bound fabric covers. Previously I was looking at getting a gold foil...
