    Bizhub pro 1051 backgrounding/scumming issue

    The developer UNIT appears to be original to the machine. The developer is new. Less than 100,000 on it. So, you say change out developer unit? The service of cleaning up machine and sensor and recalibrating helped for a few days. Now it is right back where it was.

    Clear Toner for Ricoh 7100SX

    We aren't marketing it at all. We bought the machine to replace a 751EX. It just happened to have 5th color capability. We print 90% books so it isn't like we try to market it but I guess we could. What few clients I have shown it to do not seem to be impressed. I even did one job where we soft...

    Clear Toner for Ricoh 7100SX

    Substitute for lamination only in a crunch. We occasionally do spot clear on matte paper which is pretty sharp. Clear here for 359. 828478 Ricoh Pro C7110 C7100 Clear Toner 828343

    Clear Toner for Ricoh 7100SX

    We've had this machine about 2.5 years and just now ran out of clear toner. We'd like to use it more but it is just not economical. I don't even advertise it for a charge up because lamination is much cheaper. To decorate an 11 x 17, we figured it is costing about .22 a copy. They want nearly...

    duplex on ricoh c7100

    Stupid question: Why is anyone running 5.5 x 8.5? We pay for clicks any size so we run it 4 up and chop it down.

    Bizhub pro 1051 backgrounding/scumming issue

    Cleaned toner density sensor below drum and vacuumed out machine. It is greatly improved but get this, it is lightly toning on just side 2, Side one is clean as a pin.

    envelopes on Ricoh 7110

    We run them occasionally on our 7110SX. I prefer not to since I can outsource them much cheaper but it is great for the few hundred quantities. We also have to run fuser belt smoothing in User Tools every few hundred so it doesn't leave lines later on larger prints. As I discovered, simply...

    Bizhub pro 1051 backgrounding/scumming issue

    Our service was just cancelled after 10 long years. Machine has been great the last 8 after earlier issues were addressed. Lately, we've been having a scumming/backgrounding issue with some toner pickup happening smack in the middle of sheet. That appears to be cleaning blades since that was...

    Just a Printer on YouTube

    I love watching him. He knows what he’s doing. There are a few things I could help him improve on but his videos have helped me as well.

    The Little Wonder

    I'm just a print manager and former mechanic. This was restored by Howard Iron Works. They obtained the original machine drawings that were drawn on cloth to restore the machine to spec's. I twice helped take down a 38" Harris LWQ (L238A) and in 2006 I partially took one down (1st unit) to...

    Envelope Printing

    I use tray 3 on our Ricoh 7100SX 5 color. Does an amazing job but Catalog envelopes wrinkle no matter what fuser setting we use. The trick some don't know is the skew detection (edge detection) and double sheet detection has to be turned off for that tray in user tools.

    AGFA AVANTRA 44S OLP

    We are looking for a parts supplier for our Avatra 44S and the 36/44 OLP since Bob Weber has closed. A heating element burned out and it does not have a part number to cross reference.

    Ricoh 751EX

    I know this is an old thread but wanted to put my 2¢ in. We have a Ricoh 751EX that we purchased middle of March. Our service has been impeccable but we've not been immune to problems. The black has banding when printing screens. Ricoh service replaced the developer unit with a modified version...

    Service questions on KM C7000

    Last month, we paid over $2900 and that was 48,000 color copies. The machine does good work but cannot compete with other book printers, especially those who mix color and greyscale in one book. It's a market we just cannot touch right now and the cost of this color is hampering our growth. As...

    Service questions on KM C7000

    This dealer is it. He's pretty much monopolized the whole northern part of the state so no chance to get a better deal. We're looking at a Canon Image Press 7010 that we were quoted .045¢ any size which is almost 1/3 of what we're paying now. Presently, we use about 3 bottles of Y, 2 Mag, 2...
