We have a well worn M800 table, running the GTK software with the I-Cut camera, does anyone know if its possible to detect the edge of the paper, rather than using the registration dots? We have an application in mind to cut and crease box board, and need to cut and crease from the unprinted...

Thought I would take 5 mins, its nice to be nice an all that. We bought a Jetslit from Rollem 3 years ago, and it gets worked into the ground, we finished paying for the wee beastie a few months ago. Anyways, we had a slight hitch after all this time, and James the engineer and Stuart the MD...

Oohh, its the night before IPEX, yippee!! Wondered if anyone had heard anything about the KM1? Think it sounds like a corker, price tag a bit hefty at 1.2m pound sterling, have Konica mentioned the click price, or average cost per page? I'm off to London tomorrow to see whats new, will report...

Hello all, we run lots of sheet vinyl through our express 2500, operator is having a massive nightmare everyday fighting the static in the sheets, just wondered if anyone had a magic wand they could tall us about to help. Sheets are picking doubles from the tray, has anyone found any widget we...

I read in a recent article, about a business investing in.... "automated hemming and eyeletting machines" its a bind doing it manually and i didn't know it could be automated. Does anyone know who supplies this kit? I'm based in the UK. All the best Tim

We are looking to swap out a B3 format 5 colour press (not a heidelberg) with a Heidelberg Aniclor press, 4 colour with aqueous coater. I know about the anicolor, and usual concerns that are aired about making sure pre-press is bang on, and i'm fine with that. But another local printer said to...

Is there any inexpensive software, that we can just drag a PDF into, and it spits out a new optimised PDF optimising the ink (toner) usage. We've just been forced off a click deal with a kodak Nexpress 2500 , we're been put onto the ORC model and the toner cost is going to make the machine too...

We currently print jobs on a Kodak Nexpress 2500, we run lots of B3 board, and matt lam and SPOT UV using an Autobond SUV. Circumstances have changed with our current press supplier and we need to find an alternative. Its really important that we can get repeatable, day to day register to...

Afternoon all, I'm looking into a new process for the business, a machine using 'silver halide media' 12inch width and looking for rolls of the material, could take me donkeys to research suppliers of this stuff, wondered if anyone knew of a supplier to the UK to buy in bulk from? All the best...

Anyone have a work around for the rub issues on IGEN 4 presses. Got some samples off the sales chap, press sounds fantastic, however on all the samples the toner rubs like a sod! I can imagine that been a real pain in the backside when if we got one and customers complained about print...

We Have a gluing machine, we run sheets through the gluer and it applies an even coating of glue to the back of board. we are putting attaching the glued board to a sheet and then attaching another glued board to the other side of the middle sheet, to give us a 'sandwich'. Is there a bit of...

We have a DUPLO PUR Binder (DPB 500 PUR). We use the binder to perfect bind inners for hardcover photo books, here is the problem we have, i'm hoping someone has had the same issues and found a workaround: I can't seem to get any kind of reliability out of the machine. We purge the PUR glue...

Just thought i'd see if anyone had some news. We have an application in mind, the new HP10000 would be capable of producing the items we're looking at, however the new landa B2 on paper seems like a much better proposition. When i speak to engineers from other firms the general opinion is that...

Morning All, we have a Mimaki JV 130 Print and Cut, i changed the blade in the contour cutter and now its out of position on a cutting job by about 2 - 4mm. The inaccuracy is across the width of the machine rather than down the length of the sheet, has anyone got any ideas what could cause...

Morning All, Does anyone have any experience sticking cloth to card, its for a little bookbinding thing were having a stab at. I think the general wisdom is to use a bath of glue, and a machine that you feed the cloth into and it applies an even coating of glue to the cloth. Now we are only...

Just wondered if anyone else gets this a lot. Have problem with a machine, and the engineers line is 'I've never seen it do that before, or the classic salesman line ' you're the first one this has ever happened to'. Just a bit of a general moan, wondered if anybody else get these, or perhaps...

We have a couple of canon wide format printers gathering dust in the unit here, ones a w7200 and the other a W8400. We do all our wide format work on a mimaki solvent printer, so these two machine have stood idle for donkey's years now and i'd like to put them back to use. So the question i...

Apologies if this question has been asked and answered, but i couldn't seem to find the answer. Does anyone know how much a cost per sheet is on the new landa machines? I think this information is only available to those peeps that signed up for the letter of intent, but i'm assuming the...

Afternoon All, we have a Kodak Nexpress, getting some great results out the beast with the dimensional effects and the new gloss flood coating is fantastic. We offer in house SPOT UV on all sorts, and have been meaning to use the SPOT GLOSS facility on the nexpress using the offline glossing...
