    Canon V1000 - Anyone have one? How is it going?

    I had same problem on my 910. I think they had to clean some lasers inside the fuser

    Laminating Digital Prints - What sticks?

    Assuming you are printing on an image press, you can try to jack up the fuser temp by lying to machine and telling it the stock is 351 gsm. Turn side fan levels all the way up to prevent jamming. If the stock is heavier than 65# cover, I would be happy to run a few test sheets for you on my UV...

    Rough Edge aka "Faux Deckle" edges

    I thought the only reason why deckle edges exist is because years ago a project was going horribly wrong. When the overdue job finally made it to the cutter for finishing it had an insanely dull blade with a new operator whos supervisor was on vacation. And somehow the salesman was able to sell...

    Canon 810 vs 850

    I would highly recommend going with a v900 if you are able to. It is insanely fast even compared to the 910. Inline calibration works excellent on it, and Canon has fixed its registration problem with the sensing unit as well

    Canon 810 vs 850

    LOL maybe thats why my 850 stopped running cover weights after a few years... I was told by the salesman it was rated to do 350 but you could lie to it and get away with up to 400 gsm I have a couple of Ricoh production machines (5310s) as well that have a Fiery, and I just find the Prisma to...

    Canon 810 vs 850

    Overall I love these machines. I know some people on here hate their image presses, but the quality of the prints can't be beat by a Ricoh or Konica. I would just recommend getting some good training because these machines have a ton of settings to mess around with rather that be in the file...

    Canon 810 vs 850

    I have a 910 and recently got rid of 850 for a v900(7 million clicks 95% 11x17+) - 810 has side fans on the large capacity trays, you can change strength of fans in the media settings (I recently upgraded my 850 to v900, ever since covid a lot of the coated stocks had too much static. ended up...

    What Kind of Folder Would You Recommend?

    Hey everyone, the company I work for is looking for ways to expand our newsletter mailings. We typically do booklets that end up being flat rates, and we are trying to save our customers money by folding a one signature (with possibly an 8.5x11 insert) 11x17 to 8.5x11, and then folded again to...

    I believe the Ricoh 7200 with the 5th color option has a toner you can use for that

    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.
