    Ricoh 9210 output tray

    Replace the technician. I ran a 9110 with a Plock and never had such issues. Ran a full stack. That looks like the 5110 finisher, which should have about 14 inches of travel, or 3,500 sheets of 20#.

    Looking for printing company for unique business card printing.

    Your design concept looks accurate. You will need highly flexible ribbon for the banding. I would also recommend that the hidden divider piece be a gatefold so that the ends are smooth and rounded for the ribbon to slide easily, not a cut edge. Find someone with a digital die cutter so that you...

    Extremely low priced labels on Printplace.com

    I'm sure they have a dedicated digital label press with laser cutting and UV ink. It doesn't mention if cut sheet or roll fed.

    Do you pass your discounts on to the client?

    As one who has spent the last several weekends on my roof in 100 degree weather replacing my shingles, $20,000 is a bargain (if I had $20,000). Remember the joke about $5 to hit it with a hammer and $4,995 for knowing where to hit? The contractor has the knowledge to order just the right amount...

    Do you pass your discounts on to the client?

    Unless it was a rebate targeted to the end consumer, he got exactly what he contracted for. End of story.

    Xerox Claiming End Of Life for my Xerox C75 in 1 year.

    Every time I upgrade I improve quality, increase productivity, reduce my downtime, and lower my click cost. I really don't have the time to do repairs and maintenance. That said, there are some things you should learn with any machine to keep it running instead of waiting for a technician...

    Reinforcing labels/tabs...

    No, you don't want the translucent tabs. They are paper. You want clear polystyrene with no perf. They are used as a tamper seal on all kinds of product packaging. These are 2.5 mil: Clear Mailing Tabs | Clear Tabs | WaferSeals

    What about standard clear poly tabs? Is 1 inch too large for your application?

    Konica Minolta C3070 & C3080 attachments

    Try calling JJ Bender. They will tell you if parts and accessories are hard to find. Because of supply chain issues, many are. Bender may have what you need. Your dealer may have them, but they are using them for parts right now.

    OKI Consumables a Year After the Pullout.

    We just sent a bunch back to the client because we couldn't insert them. Not only glue issues but folded improperly.

    OKI Consumables a Year After the Pullout.

    I have no clue what to expect for volume. We are a mail house and have been getting requests from clients to do 4cp and variable. We have 90% trade clients and most don't have digital envelope capability beyond Konica or Indigo. They have said either one is a last resort in most cases. We have...

    OKI Consumables a Year After the Pullout.

    Many thanks to all for the feedback. We found a great deal on a C931 with feeder and conveyor. Should be good enough to get our feet wet and build some volume to where an Astro/Mach/iJet will be practical. Our local supplier's prices for consumables ae very good, and re-chipping the drums...

    Pouch laminated menus lifting

    Sounds like lack of pressure. Some pouch laminators are just spring loaded and don't have an adjustment. Plus, the rollers can lose flexibility over time. Are the edges crystal clear after laminating? If not, you are not getting a good bond and need more pressure.

    In the DMV, many are leaving KM service and going to Commonwealth, who apparently doesn't have service or supply issues.

    YES. Chips are available for under $60 for a set of four.

    OKI Consumables a Year After the Pullout.

    Hmm. I wonder if chips are available. I'd pay up to $50 to get another run out of a drum. That would bring it down to .032 a click.
