    Duplo 618 Paper Guides

    We have a Duplo 618 and the magnetic guides that come with it are not very robust. Specifically the longer one for the intake tray. Additionally, the ones that came with our machine are not actually square which causes problems as the stacks raise and lower because the paper gets stuck unless we...

    Understanding Color Calibration Process - I feel stupid - what am I missing?

    I didn't really have this problem before with our Xerox printers because they seemed to for the most part hold their colors with a reasonable degree of consistency. I had other problems with Xerox that were insurmountable but colors seemed to be fairly stable. If the colors seemed like they were...

    Water type streaks in printing jobs

    Has anyone seen this before? We have two machines in our shop and the tech is saying it’s the paper and we need to toss all our paper. It’s happening on multiple paper types. Only on one machine. Only in the middle of the sheet and only on dark toner. Nothing in the print environment has...

    Who makes 100% White Brightness Paper

    I only know of two brands - Hammermill and Xerox. Does anyone else make it? Specifically for use in digital printers - text weight? Canon says we have to use 100% white bright paper for the image gradation adjustments. We don't normally stock either of those two brands. Obviously I can order it...

    Intec ColorCut SC5000 Digital Die Cutter

    Anyone have any experience with these machines? Pros and cons? Our shop doesn't really "need" one but I'd sure like to have one to play with. It really seems like just a very expensive version of a Cricut though so I'm curious if anyone is actually using this for anything on a professional...

    iJetColor Envelope Printer

    We bought an iJet Envelope Printer last year and we really don't use it enough to justify the cost. If someone is interested in purchasing it we are considering selling the unit (depends on what someone would offer us for it). Located in Phoenix, AZ. It probably needs a new print head, we only...

    Detecting Black and White Pages

    This has bugged me for a while and I'm wondering if I'm just overlooking something obvious. When we have larger/longer documents is there a way to find out before we print it how many pages the printer is going to "detect" as black and white vs. color pages. This seems like such an obvious thing...

    How fuzzy is it?

    Is there a scale somewhere that people use to send to their customers to explain how "fuzzy" something is. Like... how do I objectively explain how fuzzy something is going to print to a customer who does not have the ability to come in and look at a print in-person. Mobile devices do not do a...

    Impose License

    Can someone tell me where on the Xerox Fiery machine the code for the impose license is stored. I know it's in a file somewhere and I'd like to save it somewhere else (in a google doc or something). Every now and again we have a tech who does an upgrade on one of our machines and forgets to...

    Duplo Bin

    Does anyone know what the bin that Duplo puts under the DC-618 is called? It's roughly 3ft square, corrugated plastic (yard sign type) sides with reinforced corners/edges and is perfectly straight. The size and shape of it make it very useful. I'd really like about 3-4 more for our shop but I...

    Used Aerocut MBM G2

    We've got a used Aerocut MBM for sale. We just bought a Duplo so we're looking to sell our Aerocut. It's still being used in our operation. We have an extra cutting blade/motor for it. It has some minor cosmetic damage from where someone let one of the side guides slip under the front machine...

    Xerox Drums Revisited

    Is anyone else still experiencing Xerox Drum Issues? We're going on Month 4 of this drum problem. Xerox claimed to have fixed the issue with our printer/drums last month but we're still only getting 20 to 30% life out of our drums. To make matters worse our shop is at a complete standstill...

    Xerox EOL Schedule

    Is there a Xerox EOL schedule for production machines posted online somewhere? We're trying to predict when the V2100s / V3100s might be EOL by Xerox. Even a list of when each machine was first offered would be useful but google is failing us.

    Envelope Feeder Kit for Versant 2100/3100

    Does anyone have one of these things: Envelope Feeder Kit? If so does it actually help? We've been running all our envelopes through our bypass tray because they tend to jam up so consistently trying to feed out of Tray 6 or 7. They've recommended this Kit for $310 and I'm struggling to...

    Estimating the Ink Costs on a given wide format machine?

    I've been tasked with researching wide-format printers. Our shop is entirely digital and we have a click charge on everything we print with right now. I'm having trouble estimating the average cost of prints on machines that don't have a click charge. I imagine that the operating cost of the...

    Recommendations for corner stapling machine?

    Existing Process: We currently print 8.5in x 11in jobs 2-up and cut down to the 8.5in x 11in size and then run them through our Xerox j75 machine for 3-hole punching or corner stapling. Running them through the bypass tray doesn't cost us any clicks - just the time to walk-in and put another...
