    Xerox proficio px500 vs Ricoh c7500

    Interesting. I'd love to hear more about this. We're in Ontario and running a Versant 280 from Xerox. Competing dealer is at the door pushing Fuji and Ricoh.

    Versant 280 buy-out lease vs new lease Xerox Primelink C9200, or Fuji SC180/SC285 or RICOH Pro C5400S

    If we were to buy out the lease we'd be looking at a metered supplies and service contract with Xerox. I thought that the Fuji SC180 was the successor to the Versant 280 but will have to now dive into this further. I will have to take a closer look at the Proficio PX300 as you mentioned...

    Versant 280 buy-out lease vs new lease Xerox Primelink C9200, or Fuji SC180/SC285 or RICOH Pro C5400S

    Competing salesman stopping buy to pitch new lease Fuji SC180/SC285 or RICOH Pro C5400S. I'm being told the Fuji SC180 is the equivalent to the Versant 280, is this correct? We currently run the Versant 280 with very little issue and lease (from Xerox) is coming up soon. Debating to buyout the...

    Xerox Versant 280, Custom Page Size, SIQA Alignment Woes

    UPDATE: Got connected with Xerox Production Second Level support and he did a remote connect. Upgraded the device system software version from v81.1.31 to the latest public published version v81.31.81. This fixed the issue and allowed me to perform a 2-sided 12x9 alignment. The one slight...

    Xerox Versant 280, Custom Page Size, SIQA Alignment Woes

    Agreed with all this, 100%. I keep telling my boss this too. Unfortunately in the market we're in Canva is a new reality so we have to modify to support it as best we can. Otherwise, say no equals lost revenue.

    Xerox Versant 280, Custom Page Size, SIQA Alignment Woes

    Your timing is impeccable, I just received my invoice from Canva after doing a 30 day demo for a "Pro" account. I'm starting to see a lot of clients submitting poorly created PDFs (via Canva) and have found it easier (so far) to access their Canva files directly, copying and editing in the app...

    Xerox Versant 280, Custom Page Size, SIQA Alignment Woes

    70lb, uncoated 104 gsm, but good idea to question the gsm.

    Xerox Versant 280, Custom Page Size, SIQA Alignment Woes

    Me too... and weird right? Also, love your signature "Certified CANVA hater since 2020" One additional thought, I'm picking up the sheet from Tray 1 but am now wondering if I should be using the HighCap... what tray are you loading your paper into for this 12x9 sheet size?

    Xerox Versant 280, Custom Page Size, SIQA Alignment Woes

    I've decided to set up a 12x9" custom page size on our Versant 280 so that I can print and saddle-stitch a finished 5.5x8.5"_full-bleed booklet with the online finisher. I set up a custom preset page size fine and was going to set up auto alignment with SIQA and discovered that the device will...

    Xerox Proficio Range

    Wow. It will be interesting to see what Xerox comes back with then, albeit we're pretty convinced we'll buy the 280 out. It does everything we need.

    Xerox Proficio Range

    Interesting. We are running a Versant 280 and the local Xerox Rep is pushing for a new lease for newer equipment BUT, I'm almost thinking it's best to just buy-out this Versant and keep it running.

    Toner vs. Inkjet stickers?

    Bumping this post to see if there have been any advances in substrate to digitally print labels on a toner based press. Specifically in my situation (Versant 280). We run many digital paper-based labels on various Pacesetter branded sheets and kiss-cut without issue, we at times do laminate...

    Versant 2100 Mixed Media Speed...

    Late to the game here but I too am having this same issue on a Versant 280. Mind you my situation is a bit different. I printed the covers 2-up on 11x17 (80lb 216gsm Gloss Coated Cover), trimmed down to 8.5x11. I set that printed cover sheet into Tray 5 11x8.5 SEF and set up to insert it as...

    Sleeking Fit Issues

    Too many variable's with toner based presses. Heat, speed, paper thickness and sheet-to-sheet bounce. Also, after you print a sheet the paper shrinks and I would assume you also get another bit of shrinkage when run through your sleeker press. We avoid tight register with sleeked jobs.
