Real email signature Real email signature I had to chime in. One of our customers (we do print and mailings primarily) has this as his email signature - I love it! "Please note: It is OK to print this e-mail. Paper is a biodegradable, renewable and sustainable product made from trees...

We need to acquire a manual for our press, Shinohara 66VIC - it came with a different model manual, and things aren't matching up. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Rhonda:D

Which Kodak plate are you using? I found out the press previously ran Kodak Sword P45s - we have always been Violet/metal plates, but are exploring options now. Thanks, Rhonda

Thanks Mark - I caught that, and have tracked down my local sales rep to discuss in greater detail. Is the Saphira Violet probably our best solution if we go with Heidelberg plates? It seems we then need a different processor but maintain our platesetter (with laser upgrade of course). I...

Thanks for the thoughts. I have contacted our local Fuji Rep - he will be stopping in next week. Previously he has suggested the Brillia CTP Ecomaxx-T and Ecomaxx-V plates - is this basically the Pro-V system, or is there something else I need to consider? I am most intrigued by the...

I'll try to track down our Kodak pre-press so we consider this in our search - thanks for the reply. If you have rough information on pricing for the processor feel free to email [email protected]. Thanks! Rhonda

We have been told we only have a 5 mW unit - not sure how to verify. How much (roughly) is the upgrade to 30 mW? How big is Clean Out Unit - and pricing? Feel free to email if that works best - [email protected]. Thanks!

It's Rhonda - at CMC :-) So if I understand the Azura V would still require a processor, just not chemistry. Would we use the processor as a wash station for the gumming? Or purchase a gumming station? I'm trying to get our local AGFA dealer to contact me - our last rep left and the new one...

Costs plan to pay around $100k for the C900 - depends on options of course. Click fee for color plan for around $.05 each - B&W around $.012 each - also depends on volume of course.

We are upgrading our press (currently a 1984 4-color 19x25 Heidelberg) to a 1999 6-color w/coater 20x26 Shinohara. To free up a little floor space, and because the chemicals/processor is a money sink for us, we're also considering going with a new plating solution. We currently use AGFA...

We had some start up frustrations (see my previous posts for some ideas). Most were learning curve issues (setting trays correctly but differently from our other equipment) and typical bugs we see each time we get new equipment. Also, our techs learned as we learned - there weren't a lot in...

Ours is bought and supported from Ikon (MN)

Well, we are running C1S, so I guess that may contribute. We haven't had our techs tell us we can't do something - they have been more like "it's supposed to run so discover the settings that run best - here's the recomendations". I don't have experience with C2S, but it should fall within the...

This is weird - we do this exact same work (variable data postcards) - we have successfully run Tango Brand 10 pt C1S, and Carolina Brand 10 and 12 pt C1S, both duplexed. At first we had many jams, but took care of it with better drawer set ups (we were actually setting the drawer too tight...

Thanks - my search function wouldn't work, so I appreciate the link and the advice.

What a great idea - I am definitely adding this to my folder, thanks for sharing. We had a mail piece for an RV repair club that included an "oil" scented patch - outsourced, however, so I didn't have to smell it much lol...I like the car freshener idea better. Rhonda

I am looking for suggestions on stock or settings for printing letterhead. We are using a Ricoh C900, and have some smaller customers with 4cp letterhead on offset stock. It looks great, but when they take and run it through a laser printer, the print smears off, onto the rollers, and onto the...

Hi Jerod - Please see my post in the other C900 forum. However, to answer your specific questions, I would say look at your local Ikon service team. Are they good? Are your local techs knowledgeable? It will make the most difference. We have Ikon for our personalization department (have...

Hi Jerod - I don't own the C900, but the company I work for does :-) So far there's been some learning curve - see my post in a similar thread. Overall, we're very happy with the C900. I am amazed at the color match - we recently printed some PDFs from a game company highlighting a new game...

Lol - you're right, I'll have to get after Sales and Marketing.... We do have the Canon's for B&W - we do a lot of VDP for fulfifllment & mailing, and the Canon's have been awesome for us, real workhorses. Good luck with your purchase! Rhonda
