    Uncoated Duplexing Question

    Hey everyone, we have a customer who really likes the Springhill Bristol Pink vellum 67 lb cover. The sheet itself is pretty thin for a cover on a book. Last year we had it sent out to be duplexed, but the glue our vendor used made the sheets bow a good bit. I was thinking about using an 80...

    Any tips for repairing a rubber roller on an UV coater?

    I recently ran into a problem with my rubber roller where the coating cured onto it. I tried everything to get it off, and had to resort to using a razor to remove the cured gloss. I was extremely careful but I slightly nicked a few spots on the roller, so now when I run sheets through I have a...

    Diamond Hard Velvet Matte™ D&K Soft Touch Issue

    I had a similar problem a few years ago but different machines etc. The only thing we could point to is the amount of cyan on the stock. We were applying a soft touch laminate. I use a UV coater for smaller runs, whenever I use soft touch on that I actually find it holding on to the stock...

    Canon imagePROGRAF Pro-2000 Draining Ink

    I have a Pro-4000s, but I haven't had an issue with that exact problem. I do know that the machine needs to be on 24/7 (power button should always be glowing) so the print head doesn't dry out.

    Do you have the brand of envelope? My first guess is that they are not meant to be ran digitally

    Xante Enpress New Drum uses Fuse Blow to reset counters

    I have the same machine. We don't pay for service on it, but we have a ricoh tech that said you can run those drums usually around double their "set life". I learned that after I hit 60k and replaced my black drum. I have ran about 20k over recommended on the color drums and it runs just fine.

    UV coating and scoring

    I have found nothing but issues when trying to UV coat after creasing. I do a lot of newsletter covers and brochures on heavy stocks. After the sheet is printed, I coat it and then crease it. I usually do gloss, but have done a good bit of soft and matte. Just make sure on the soft and matte...

    New Xante Tabletop UV-Printers

    I have a Xante Enpress for small envelope orders. At most 2,000 at a time. It is great for small runs. There are some issues with it, the biggest one is you really have to know what you're doing in order for it to work without jamming or causing any other problems. Very tedious, but over all...

    Discontinuing Blazer???

    I have had a lot of issues with the Blazer 100# gloss text recently. up until about a month ago that was 75% of the paper I ran. I have tried 4 different paper suppliers and I keep getting "dirty" sheets. Gray little dots all over the sheet, mics out to be less than the GSM advertised and...

    Ricoh Pro C7210sx constant paper jams

    Could be... -tray rollers -static -If your paper has been stored in a different part of the building than the machine that could cause it to give you similar problems as well -paper setting* just because it says its 100# text doesn't necessarily mean it is that weight. I have a tool that tells...

    Tec Lighting Inline Carbon Filter or Exhaust fan?

    I recently purchased a used TRUVF-21D, and I am new to the world of UV coating. I will only be coating at most 3,000 sheets at a time a couple of times a week, and the machine is located in a small warehouse. Has anyone had any luck using an inline carbon filter, or would I be better off...
