After being out of the print industry (pre-press & digital printing) for a couple of years I'm now venturing back, though this time in the wide format arena. I've gotten myself a Roland SP-540V and would like to know any feedback out there on this machine, the good and the bad

I'm out of the digital printing business for now and wanting to sell my PWS, the specs are as follows: Laptop: Sony Vaio PC6-9P6M Pentium 4 - 2.GHz 512MB RAM Windows XP PWS: GSN9 - PWS Framework v 1.22.1 These are the machines supported: 1010 2101 DC12 DC2045 - 2060 - 5252 DC6060 DC2240 -...

I'm looking to buy a Roland print and cut wide format printer, i.e. a CJ-50, CJ-40 or a Versacamm. I will definitely consider a machine a machine that needs repair if the price is right.

I just discovered that when I calibrate my Xerox DC2060 (on Fiery EX2000d, calibrated with X-rite DTP32) I don't get as strong solids as when I just tell the Fiery to use the "Default Calibration". As an example solid reds (M=100, Y=100) become a bit orange when calibrated yet they are fine...

I have a DC5252 that I'm breaking up so if anyone is interested in bits off it please let me know.

I've been doing pre-press (film) in Uganda but the price of film has shot through the roof and it's very competitive so it's really time to look at CTP. I came across a Presstek Dimension 400 and was wondering what the general opinion is of these machines. Also, what are there...

Hi, I've got an issue with lines 90 degrees to the print direction (i.e. parallel with the drums), you can see them on the attachment (there's a magenta tinge in the yellow on the attachment, that was just a bad drum and not part of this issue). I guess it's what the service manual calls high...

Hi, I know that the Xerox DC 5252 came after the DC 2045/2060 and was advertised as faster than the 2045 (slower than the 2060 obviously). My question is whether or not there were any other differences than the speed, did the 5252 have any improvements over the 2045/2060 at all?

Hi, I'm looking for a used fuser belt frame assembly with some life left in it for my DC2060, or a really cheap new one :-) The part numbers are: - 00K76990 - fuser belt frame assembly which should include the following: - 126K08331 inlet heater rod - 019K97150 holder assy Gustav

Would anyone know if I can use a 2128 drum in a 3535? I know the chip may not be compatible but I can swop that

I hear a lot about the front to back registration of the DC250 (and its ilk), some say it's appalling and others that it's acceptable. My questions are: 1) Is the misregistration consistent so one can adjust the artwork or is it random 2) I have some DC12s and all have different front to back...

Can anyone let me know how much a Konica Minolta C6501 slows down on heavier paper. Up to what grammage does it do 65 prints per minute? Their brochures are very unhelpful on this.

I run a pre-press company that is going more into digital printing, as such we get a number of requests for wide format, anything from indoor on photo paper to outdoor on vinyl and car stickers etc. At present we outsource these. I've come across an HP DesignJet 510 42" and I am wondering if...

Hi, I've been running a Panther Pro 62 for the last 5 years or so. The Panther RIP 10 came installed on a Windows NT machine. We've since changed that to XP and I've also on many occasions re-installed the RIP software and I've had no problem doing that. Today, for the first time, we formatted...

Am considering a DC250 but it's got a total count of just over 1.3 million clicks (960K colour), though it's been maintained up to the end of last year on contract in a Scandinavian country (I'm assuming well maintained). Any general ideas if this is too much for a DC250 or it's still got some...

I've been fighting with skew for some time on my DC2060, changing 2nd BTR and doing endless tray aligns with varying success. Today I did a preview of a job on the RIP (Fiery EX2000d) and realised that the exact skew the printer is giving me is already in the ripped job. I'd be most grateful for...

Hi, does anyone out there have a used, but working, developer assembly for a DC2060 (MM assy part no. 802K69800) or even just a bias contact for that which you want to get rid of for little money? Ordered one but it seems to have got lost in the mail and my machine is down due to that so I need...

Hi, I've again image issues with my DC2060, my tech (who is not trained on a DC2060 but on Xerox B&W production machines) has been working on it for 2 weeks and isn't getting anywhere. You'll notice that the magenta is "cloudy" for want of a better word, yellow and black are OK'ish and cyan is...

Another issue with my "new" DC12 is that someone in it's past life has changed the access code to the Tools menu from "11111" to God knows what. Is there any way around this to get access to the Tools menu. Thanks in advance.

Hi all, I'm trying to figure out the difference between Xerox DC240/DC250 and the DC242/DC252. Is it just a slight cosmetic upgrade or are there more fundamental things that influence print quality, reliability etc? If this has been covered before I can't find the thread, please point me to it...
