The manufacturer's technician said that in order to change the rollers out, we have to lay the folder on it's side and "split the machine in half". I.E. he's stating we have to take the side frame off to access the...

    Perfed Cover Stock Stuck Together

    They were double-feeding in our addressing machine so at high speeds, if it doesn't jam, it'll shoot out with the address/barcode imprinted correctly but it has a blank card fixed underneath it. Think static cling, but instead the perfs are hooked together. Thanks for the ideas on fixing the...

    Perfed Cover Stock Stuck Together

    Has anyone run into an issue where perforated cover stock (14pt or 16pt) sticks together? We're a lettershop, not a printshop. When we received a shipment of postcards from a printer, the perfed area binds the cards to one another, making them literally stick to one another. I'm just...

    Digital Duplicators & Envelopes

    It's good to know that there's petroleum based inks available. I demo'd a Richo JP1235 last week and when asked, the rep didn't know if waterproof inks were available. He suggested I run one of the proofs "under water" to test it. Regardless, the JP1235 quality at 300 dpi wasn't sellable...

    Digital Duplicators & Envelopes

    Hi All, I'm hoping to get some input on using a digital digital duplicator as a means of producing simple 1 or 2-color envelopes...
