    Canon 7000VP...rollers getting cut up...paper being blamed.

    Paper Being Blamed? Paper Being Blamed? We have had a 6000VP now for about 9 months and run a multitude of different size stocks of varying thickness through it with no issues that you describe. We also seem to have similar click counts as you. Hmmm? Have you actually seen physical cuts in any...

    Canon 6000/7000 Blues - A Local Problem or National Problem?

    I am a production manager in a Florida digital shop and we have had a 6000VP for about 9 months now. It ran perfect for the first 6 months and we run it hard. That is about the time the Dev units and parts start to wear out. From that point on it's been find and replace. We carry our service...

    Calibrating Myth or Fact

    For your own peace of mind I would calibrate once in the morning and evaluate the change in humidity and temperature around noon in the shop. If you have a major fluctuation in either of the two, I would re-calibrate after lunch. Twice a year? Hmmmm? I would be very suspect. Never heard of...

    Print quality of an older HP Indigio 1000?

    Too expensive for the times Too expensive for the times Scott, What you don't need is a highly trained pressman that costs you way too much $$$.

    Print quality of an older HP Indigio 1000?

    Just Say No Just Say No I have had years of experience with both the 1000 and 3000 models of the Indigo. Too expensive and break too often. Look at one of the new Canon Image Presses or Oce's 650 for card work. Great color less expensive workhorses. You don't need a press anymore. Good luck
