    WTB X-Rite i1 Pro 2 or Efi ES-2000 Spectrophotometer

    I am selling my Ricoh C5300S with the ES2000, but if you would like to purchase my ES2000 separately, let me know. Works great, if you already have the Fiery RIP software for your machine, this has the license included when plugged in, and it is recognized.

    Digital Equipment Lease

    bb, first I would suggest if it is not too late, too not sign for the C5310. I have the C5300S and it's exhibited many issues, and it's hard to make money with it.

    Looking to start a print business & need advice

    new2print, why not simply purchase an existing printing company that has the equipment you want, and has spent the time in setting up, ironing out bugs etc. Not to mention establishing themselves in the market? I've run an operation here in Northern Ontario for approx. 10 years now, and have...

    CWS mixed media has lower max paper weight than supported by machine?

    Hello BCR. I also have a Ricoh Pro 5300S, 2020 version. I've done many books, with many different kinds of stocks/thickness's. I have noticed similar instances and the service guys cannot figure out things, because there is no answer.....yet! The pre-printed cover can be called "pre-printed", or...

    Screens for Fiery or just Remote Desktop?

    Hello Deckm00, Thanks for the reply. I have gone quite high up the flag pole, but no one has any answers yet. They say they are looking into things, but they are so busy because of putting these, and other machines in every office they can imagine, it's left them short handed and without the...

    Screens for Fiery or just Remote Desktop?

    Yes, it was installed with the surge protector, but when power does go off when the building is empty of people, there isn't anyone to take care of the issue of the c5300 losing it's Rip. I have since connected a laptop to the machine and now can see and choose settings at the machine, instead...

    Ricoh 5300

    Got one too. Got it in 2020 and now it's 2022, with the machine experiencing issues just like all the rest of the Ricoh's I've had here. Not impressed, because service doesn't even know how to fix these issues yet, and they have had two years to figure it out! Jamming, colour smearing on...

    Ricoh C7210 Envelope printing

    I've had success with feeding from tray 2 on my Ricoh C5300. I put them in flap up and flap side towards wall(so feed edge is the short side), away from operator. They come out perfect, no wrinkles. Have to use the 'Envelope setting' so the machine knows not to pinch too tight.

    small printer for printing on Envelopes 89mm x 152mm

    Hi there. I just happen to have an Okidata envelope printer, with the straight shooter stack feeder and conveyor on exit to go along with it. The printer is a Cx3641, with built in RIP. Let me know if you are interested. I am in North Bay, Ontario.

    Screens for Fiery or just Remote Desktop?

    Hello Deckm00, I have the E-27B rip with the Ricoh 5300S. I've found that since the RIP doesn't have a GUI, I cannot select a method of shut down, so in case of having Hydro surges when I'm not around(gone home for the day or weekend) there can be no damage caused to this very sensative Linux...

    skewed paper in booklets

    Well back with some news. I am having Ricoh draw up a deal on a C651ex. They will take back the C5100 minus depreciative costs, and supply the same click charge with a small decrease on colour clicks. I am glad to see that they are prepared to take one away and offer a new certified machine in...

    skewed paper in booklets

    I will be speaking with the division manager this week and hopefully he can be of better assistance. Thank you all for your replies. To 'Pricenegotiator'; the booklet is a self cover, using all 'futura laser gloss' 80lb coated text. I don't have this problem with uncoated stocks, Even if I put a...

    skewed paper in booklets

    No Title I am uploading 4 pics to show the concern. I had a tech here twice today and both times he fixed things short term, but still having the same issue, but I really think it's an issue with heat and static cling making the sheets not stay in line when going into the folder/finisher to be...

    A Printer for Photobook,Children's Books

    Hello msaeger, I am reading about the Plockmatic booklet maker you've suggested for the post above, and I am curious if it is an internal add-on, or a whole new booklet finishing unit? I just had to do 100 books which were 86 pages including cover and could not do it with the current booklet...

    skewed paper in booklets

    Hi Priceline. I don't have any of those booklets left. After trimming and delivering to the client, the rest went into the trash. Sorry, no pics. But if I experience similar troubles I will be sure to upload pics.

    skewed paper in booklets

    Alois, I don't know about the A? numbers, but I can say I am using 18 x 12 coated text, and the booklets are a 16 page self cover. I am not running conventional offset, but using digital printing technology, specifically the Ricoh Pro C5100s. 4 sheets = 8 spreads, printed 4/4 collated, folded in...

    New Install - Ricoh Pro C7110SX

    Msaeger, thank you for the response, I posted a new thread, asking about the finisher gathering sheets for a booklet, and the sheets getting skewed, then folding skewed and stapling skewed. The post is in the Digital Printing Discussion area if you might know if that's common or not. Thanks.
