Very limited article but looks to replace Versants. https://www.digitalprintermag.co.uk/news/128854/xerox-unveils-new-proficio-digital-presses/

Hi all, Just printed a booklet for an artist's exhibition at a gallery and sent out for perfect binding. When I collected it they had bound on the wrong side, so the booklet was back to front inside. There was no page numbers but the opening page was a title page with usual "Presenting" etc...

Seems to be their inkjet market but will be interesting to see what direction it takes. https://www.digitalprintermag.co.uk/news/128388/xerox-re-enters-cut-sheet-inkjet-market-with-kyocera-deal/

Hi, Recently got a v280 installed and having trouble with skew. Working on new alignment profiles as we progress through different stocks but have got stuck with a 300gsm gloss SRA3. Basically when I run the SIQA one side is straight but the other still needs more Skew. When I check manual...

Hi all, We do memorial/wallet cards with usual spec, generally printed on our versant80 on 350/400gsm silk and gloss laminated (pouch and roll), round corners. I just got a sample card in from a client and the gloss finish on it is like glass smooth, zero imperfections, I feels like plastic...

Quick query - got a new windows laptop (only used for accounts and basic printouts) set up printer to hold queue loaded Xerox driver. All work fine only I can't get CW6 (run seperately on external rip) to override the colour setting and print grayscale. Works fine from my laptop. In job...

Seems to have similar specs and features as V280 for example ...... but I'm seeing optional upgrade mentioned alot. Looks like these two models are direct competitors to the V4100 and V280. So far I'm impressed with how fast they're entering the market, I expected it to be slower. Hopefully...

Hi, We currently do raffle tickets books by manually counting and hand stapling them into whatever per book. Anyone got an other methods/machines that may be better?

Will be interesting to see how this progresses. Competition is always welcome but I wonder how good their support and service offerings will be either direct or outsourced. https://www.digitalprintermag.co.uk/news/77723/uk-debut-for-fujifilm-revoria-and-apeospro-c-presses/

Hi, Running NCR on our V80 for the last 5 years and the last two times its damaged the transfer belt which is causing this mark. The first time it happened I'd took Xeroxs advice and put in a very old 2nd BTR to preserve my good one, something I'd never bothered with before. It marked like this...

Hi all, I've had a company within our estate approach us looking to create photobooks. Basically their idea is that they'll send me pdf book that needs to be printed double sided on 350gsm card, with a creased hinge and two hole punch and they then send it to be bound in premade leather...

Had two experiences this week of jobs potentially turning into a disaster and managed a crazy workaround. Just thought I'd share and if anyone has similar instances. 1st - Printing x200 DL window envelopes (Conqueror Wove so pricey) Anyway only after ordering did I remember you mostly need...

Hi, Have a Versant 80. Running into a problem with 130gsm gloss. It seems the machine is building up static and causing the backup to swing. It builds up gradually so first 100 / 200 sheets would be perfect and then you'd see the back going 1mm out and slowly getting worse and worse until the...

Our standalone creaser (Morgana Autocreaser) needs a new motherboard and given it's age I really think it's best to retire it. I can get an used newer Morgana Autocreaser for decent money but I'm wondering would I be able to just get a Creaser/Slitter/Cutter (SCC) instead for a few k more...

Hi, This topic crops up alot on here amongst Versant owners (my V80 being on of them). Just thought I'd share my workaround. Problem - 2nd Btr creates drag lines from waste toner. Occurs mainly on coated stocks and results in 2nd Btr needing to be constantly replaced way before its due. More...

Hi, Versant 80 with EX80 print server. All of a sudden whenever we open job parameters on a job in the fiery we are experiencing about 30-40sec delay in the window actually opening. If we click anything during this wait the screen fades out like it's about to crash but eventually comes back in...

Hi, Query 1 - I know the basic sleeking is main print, soft lam, sleek area overprint then foil. Has anyone tried sleek area overprint then foil then over print again on unfoiled/ or foiled areas? I've seen a few "sales pitches" online claiming to print on the actual foil for better images...

The Irish government bought a Komori Press that didn't fit where it was intended to go. Ended up needing to perform €236,000 worth of construction works while the machine sat in paid storage. €808k press ended up costing over million all because someone didn't measure it correctly for...
