We have had notification that production of these plates has stopped. Can anybody on the forum recommend a plate to use on our vector TX or is it scrap metal now..

We have had our Ricoh for 8 months. After initial bedding in issues it has been great. Better quality and speed than our old Xerox 700 but that was to be expected in a newer machine. We use the spot gloss on certain jobs white not at all yet. Long sheet is a great feature and we have improved...

Trouble is with banner tray the tail edge of the paper or board is still in the feed tray when the front end hits the registration part so the tail end is skewed as it comes through. Only way they can fix this is by fitting a bridge unit making sure the tail is clear of the feeder unit before...

We are 3 months in with ours and it's been fantastic. 130k on the clock My operator cannot get over how good the registration is on this. We only have a problem with the banner tray registration which is a known fault apparently..? Certainly an upgrade on our old Xerox 700.

Hi Digital printfan you are correct there is no comparison between the 2 machines as tech has advanced in ten years. However to compare to the 1000i in the UK is not comparable as the Ricoh machine is half the price, and comparable in terms of output.

1 month in and 60k on the clock. Can count then jams on one hand. Great machine but do not tell everyone :) We came from a Xerox 700 and the difference is night and day...

We are 2 weeks in from our install and I have got to say it is a beast. We have had approx. 6 jams in two weeks and it runs all day long perfect. We came from a Xerox 700 so to have prints come out straight and in fit is something of a novelty... We did have a patch update which cured the last...

You have to put the white down first followed by the colour after on a separate run. Registration in our experience has been good enough on this.

Ours was delivered yesterday, Start training on it today. Replaced our old Xerox 700. We got the white/clear option and banner feeder. Looking forward to seeing what we can do with this.

Back of blade cuts will help. Also check with your blade people it's my understanding that digital/litho blades are ground at different angles. I think there will always be some chipping with toner machines lamination is the only answer. Hope this helps

Well After weeks of troubles... We washed the rollers with boiling water and not a single problem since. Runs of 10k, 20k not a problem. Got to say Presstek UK have been excellent throughout. They did replace a couple of parts so maybe a combination of cleaning rollers and parts. But happy to...

We have had the same problem. There is no yellow stock in the UK at present we had a delivery today x4 of all other colours with no word when the yellow is due. Thw same happened 2 years ago and we came to a grinding halt then.

Has anybody on here had any experience with these machines. We need to replace a 2 col GTO with a B3 4 colour press. Would anybody recommend one of these machines or should we go 2nd hand from one of the main players - Hiedelberg. Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks
