    Printing postcards for direct mail promotion

    $7k is a Reasonable price for that machine. I see you are printing black ink, that is a color printer. Judging by the fact it's a 242, it will be at least 6 years old which means your price per click (the cost Xerox charges for a click) will be very high. I would estimate around $.02 per...

    Xerox Color 1000 Press

    I can only speak for what we have done ourselves in our demo room. What is your stock? (GSM, synthetic-poly?) How is your environment? (temperature, humidity, etc) These factors will affect all print, but especially digital print. I have total confidence doing these tests in front of our...

    XC1000 Consistency XC1000 Consistency Hey folks - actual Xerox GC rep here (I never hide who or what I am) When considering the Color Press 800/1000 and the competitive models, here is a fun little test we do in our demo room to really put the questions and doubt to bed. Our customers have...

    Xerox 7002 & 8002

    I am a Xerox direct GC rep and I will tell you honestly - I have not even considered that model since shortly after it's launch a few years back. I did install a 7002 that gave me nothing but grief until November 2010. I learned of the relaunch effort taking place and had my service team...

    Upgrading from the Bizhub 6500 Looking for opinions

    My honest opinion here. Again, as I always state, I am a Xerox employee, but owned a print shop for 18 years before coming to work here. I owned equipment in my days as a printer from everybody BUT Xerox. There, now that the bias has been revealed... Everything I have seen so far, leads me...

    Xerox 7002 or 1000?

    I am a sales rep for Xerox and I have seen with my eyes the glossy appearance that the 800/1000 prints. It is almost identical to the iGen. However, during one of our demos, the creator of this product was present and she quickly showed us an operator could adjust the fuser temperature and...

    Best Digital Printer today

    Please - give me a break! Please - give me a break! Word of caution to the Ricoh C 900 lovers out there. There are 2 in my state (I am a Xerox sales guy) in GA accounts and one is being removed by Ricoh due to a complete lack of performance and the other is on the ropes as well. By the way...

    4112 vs 8105 reliability per page?

    Netrunner, First off - I am a Xerox rep and am not here to blast the Canon in any way shape or form!! I have had extensive experience with the 41XX models and I can tell you first hand, they are monster boxes. I have a customer whose references I can supply who have 2 of them, each running an...

    Xerox Color 1000 Press

    Xerox 800 / 1000 Xerox 800 / 1000 Please do not make the mistake of assuming this is a "baby iGen". The 800/1000 is a brand-new technology, designed from the ground up. While it utilizes many of the great features of the iGen, it also makes use of some of the other printer technology Xerox...

    Xerox Color 1000 Press

    Sorry to let you down, but while we do have some information, we have been non-disclosed. The wait for info will be a bit longer, in the US anyway.

    Ever heard of an iGen? That's the big Xerox machine you guys try to tell customers that you can outrun with your office copiers.

    Xerox Color 1000 Press

    This is actually very good advice for print companies. Being a Xerox sales rep, sure, I'd like to sell equipment - that's how I get paid afterall! If I encounter an offset shop with no digital today, chances are there numbers have been slipping a bit and they are seeing the need to add digital...

    tired of brokering envelopes-is Xante the answer

    The Xerox 700 supports running some envelopes and all of my customers have started running envelopes with very satisfactory results. I have heard of runs in the area of 5,000 at a crack. Be sure to talk with your Xerox rep about this to make certain you are completely aware of the ups and...

    Ricoh's Ikon acquisition

    We at Xerox are so greedy and don't care about our customers. Like the customer who we helped prepare to win a 2.5 million printing contract, or the countless others we send out to the Gil Hatch center on our dime to learn about vertical segments or profitable skills. Plus, when we bring in...

    Xerox 7002 & 8002

    I can tell you all about a customer who just decided on a Xerox 7002 over a Ricoh C900S and a Canon 7000VP. Yes, the Xerox was $50,000 more, but the first thing I told him was that the Ricoh does not belong in the same class as the Xerox 7002 and the Canon 7000VP. He saw that for himself in 1...
