    Ikon cpp500

    Not soon enough. Really, though, it was around the time that Ricoh ate Ikon. 2008ish

    Ricoh C751 Demo

    This afternoon I will be demoing the Ricoh C751. I had mentioned the possibility of demoing this unit before, and asked if any of you had files you'd like to see tested out. A couple of you expressed interest in sending files, but the demo fell through. We finally managed to get a demo set up...

    Xpedx Stores Division Closing

    International Paper doubles earnings in 2011 - Memphis Business Journal ....the f**k? Splashdesignz, I wouldn't worry too much about it. Other companies are going to step in and fill the gap. This is IP's loss.

    Xpedx Stores Division Closing

    I don't think we will attempt to do business with the warehouse IP is keeping in Memphis. I have heard that they don't care to do business with printers our size and that they are separate from xpedx so we'd have to go through the whole opening an account thing again. We have MAC and Athens...

    Ricoh pro c751ex

    Our local Ricoh office will have the c751ex for two days next week. The rep says due to the earthquake in Japan the offices in this region are having to share the demo unit, hence the limited time frame I have to see the machine. Kind of a bummer, as I feel like I don't have much time to...

    How to Print Envelopes without Skewing on One Side

    We will do it when a client wants 50 of an envelope in some whackass PMS colour and they freak out when I tell them how much it costs. Then I say we can do them digitally, but they're probably going to wrinkle, though the people you're mailing them to will just assume the post office did it...

    How to Print Envelopes without Skewing on One Side

    Try opening the flap and feeding from the bottom of the envelope. We've had some success this way, but you have to watch carefully as some of them will print crooked.. usually the last envelope in the bypass tray and the first couple off the stack will be the worst.

    KM C5500 Maintenance Question

    Thanks for the responses. I guess I should be more demanding about these kind of things. They do get kind of whiny about it, so I'm assuming it's not their choice.

    KM C5500 Maintenance Question

    We lease a rebadged KM 5500 from Ikon. It is currently telling me that it needs some "Required Maintenance" because all of the developers are showing around 140%. It has obviously been telling me this for awhile, but our Ikon techs say we don't need to have the developers replaced, KM sets these...

    What happened to training rant?

    UberTech - I would also like a copy of this book. SteveL - I would have LOVED to had two days training on our machine. They just kind of came in and said, "You already know how to use CWS." Then, I was shown a couple other things, but mostly just left to it. And honestly, in the beginning, that...

    km6500/01 - NCR

    The new Appleton Superior NCR really does appear to work for offset or digital. I am impressed (so far). I think the cats over at NCR realized XeroForm was a bunch of expletive deleted. XeroForm and the old Appleton Superior NCR curled up in our Ikon branded KM.. bad. Like, had to uncurl the...

    What happened to training rant?

    This! Me: There are some weird lines showing up in this art when I print using a Freeform Master. It's messing up my image, before I even print it.. you can tell it's messed up. You can actually see it in SeeQuence. Do you know what would cause that? It looks fine, until you apply the master...

    Ikon 550c Issue with Centering Images

    That helped a little; the job I was attempting to run is no longer bleeding. What is funny is that the techs were the ones who changed those settings when I first complained. I knew about those settings forgot about them! :rolleyes: Things are closer to lining up now. Thanks!

    Ikon 550c Issue with Centering Images

    It will usually move things down and to the right, even to the point of the image bleeding on the right and bottom. On average, the image is shifted about a half inch from the top and about the same, give or take an eighth to a sixteenth on the right. I tried image shift this morning, selecting...

    Graphic design/Marketing company looking for advice on a digtal press.

    I agree with the two previous posts. Continuing to outsource is probably your best bet. Let the lease payments, buying the paper, troubleshooting the machine and dealing with potentially shady copier salespeople remain someone else's headache. Having said that, if you're really bent on getting...

    Ikon 550c Issue with Centering Images

    Hi. *waves* I'm new. We have an Ikon 550c that refuses to center images in the page. The techs at Ikon swear up and down that this problem is ours, not an issue with the machine, and is stemming from the fact that we are printing from InDesign. I have experimented with different print settings...
