Can we run 14pt stock on qmdi pro? I know Ryobi and presstek can run up to 20pt. One guy told me he does not have an A/C room so he has to run his press early in the morning or in evening during summer.

mgi mgi Yes, it's slow and pricey, good for qty of 500 or less. They use KM machine and add the feeding table to improve registration. They also control fusing temp for different substrates. Also it stops for calibration very frequent so the throughput is ~30% lower than spec. Also if you run...

Ryobi, Presstek 34DI vs QMDI 46 Ryobi, Presstek 34DI vs QMDI 46 Based on feedback from users, can we say that Ryobi and Presstek 34 DI presses are more sensitive in operating temperature (A/C controlled room required) than Heidi QMDI presses? I am asking this question because we don't have an...

Is 524GE newer version of 524HE? Does anyone know if 524HE has auto roller/blanket wash?

After reading all the posts, I decide to get a SM52-2 instead of Ryobi 3304HA because of landscape feed, print quality and ease of use. What is the price range of a used SM52-2 nowadays?

I saw the Heidelberg Kord used as a die cut machine. I have one sitting idle and thinking about covert it to die cut machine. How is it done? Is it expensive to do?

I have a MGI envelope feeder for sale. I bought new but never use. Let me know if you are interested.

printerdw, does your 524 have auto blanket wash? Also did you run any 11x17 full bleed, solid color job on it? How is the quality? consistent?

looking for SM52-2 looking for SM52-2 I am looking for an Heidelberg SM52-2 to purchase. Does anyone on this board have one to sell?

Jdaghir, We already have a Konica for short run but for 2000+ run it's not competitive. Right now we can only afford a 4C 13x18 or 2C 14x20 (we currently have one old 2C 13x18). I concern that the 4C 13x18 does not produce a quality print comparing to 14x20 press. If it's not that bad then I...

Yes, I know what you mean but the 524 is more expensive. That's why I try to compare 13x17 4C vs 14x20 2C.

We need to run only one or two small 4C jobs a day. The job could be 11x17 full bleed, solid color. If I have a choice for one of above presses, which one should I pick? Which one is easier to operate? Which one is superior in quality? Right now we don't worry about capacity but we want...

MGI also offers one that can run paper, plastic and envelopes but it's pricey though.

3304 3304 Thanks, jdaghir! That's the reason one salesman suggested me to buy a 2C 14x20 heidelberg speedmaster. He said it's cheaper with 2C, but with more automation as the speedmaster it won't take much time to run a 4C job on 2C press.

ryobi 3304 ryobi 3304 I know 524 is a step up of 3304. Due to our volume, we will go with 3304HA which has semi auto load, auto wash and control console. I am a rookie pressman; hopefully it will make my job easier. Thanks

ryobi 3304 ryobi 3304 printerdw, I think 3304 is good enough; however, some printers told me I should go with GTO or DI because nowadays 150lpi is not good enough. I'm afraid that I have to find another press after I get 3304. How is your 524? Every time I talk to a salesperson, he tries to...

MGI envelop feeder MGI envelop feeder I paid more than $20K for it. I ask for $11K. Email [email protected] if you havve any question.

MGI envelop feeder MGI envelop feeder Quality is okay but consumables are too expensive for paper printing. It could be justified if you do plastic printing. I was told MGI drop prices on consumables by half recently. I believe they use same toner (and other stuffs) as Konica only different in...
