    Favorite NCR Paper

    Thank you, that is good to know. It sounds like the one issue I have with the Superior. It feels a bit more toothy which I think causes the white copy to drag in with the yellow. I know on the Konica I could try turning up the air separation; but, I don't know if that is an option on my Xerox.

    Favorite NCR Paper

    What is everyone's go to NCR paper brand? I've been using Excel One and am mostly happy with it. It feeds well and works. But, I thought I'd see other papers and ran a case of Superior NCR. I was amazed at how much more resistant it seems to be of marking from a bit of rough handling. I...

    Versant 80- Independent Finishing?

    Thanks, I will give that a try. It might come in handy for small quantities, like this project.

    Versant 80- Independent Finishing?

    With Konica, I was able to perform folding and punching directly from the folder by loading a stack of paper in the post inserter (without printing). Is such a thing possible on the Xerox V80? It has a post inserter and C/Z folder but, I'm gathering that it can maybe only be used for inline...

    Xerox Versant 80- Purchase?

    I still haven't been able to get a call back from KM Business Solutions. I'm working with a KM dealer at the moment. I expressed my concerns with the quote I was given for the C4065; and, I he is looking at pricing on a demo model C658. The C658 will likely be more in my price range as a...

    Xerox Versant 80- Purchase?

    Thank you. I was surprised when they came to me with this offer. It all seemed rather inflated to me; but, I wanted other input. I will be speaking with them tomorrow to see what they have to say.

    Xerox Versant 80- Purchase?

    Thanks for your input. I am actually planning to talk to Xerox tomorrow. I believe they have a used V180 locally. I let you know what I find out.

    Xerox Versant 80- Purchase?

    So, I finally got a quote from a Konica rep. I'm going to ask more about used equipment, as I'm not ready to go all in on my side job. But, I was quoted a new C4065 with high capacity feeder (LU-202XLm, and FS-532 finisher with SD-510, Fiery, and Envelope Fuser for $37,338 and $346/month...

    Xerox Versant 80- Purchase?

    I finally spoke with a Konica representative on Friday and am working with him to see what they recommend and get some pricing. Konica Business Solutions and Marco haven't called me back yet. I left messages with both and filled out their online information request forms. As for other brands...

    Xerox Versant 80- Purchase?

    I'm still really struggling to find a Konica dealer in my area. I've filled out the contact form on Konica's official site. I've called Marco, who apparently took over some smaller dealers that I tried to call. All I can get from them is an email wanting to set up an online meeting. I called...

    Xerox Versant 80- Purchase?

    So, how do I even go about finding an authorized dealer/servicer of Konica Equipment in my area? Or, are there third parties that handle service contracts? In searching the internet, I can find a Konica Business Solutions office fairly close to me. I called; but, I only got an option to leave...

    Xerox Versant 80- Purchase?

    Thank you all for your advice. I called around today to find my local Konica and Xerox reps. Although, I am adventurous I would like the reliability and piece of mind of something newer that I know who to call when I can't resolve the issue. I'll see what they have to say. My issue when...

    Xerox Versant 80- Purchase?

    What are your thoughts on buying a used Xerox Versant 80? I bought this KM C8000 back in February (I should have done more research). The C8000 has its problems, regularly; however, I have managed to keep it plugging along this long. And, I have gotten my couple thousand dollar investment out...

    50k? Most of what I am doing is NCR, so the volume adds up fairly quickly. But, I certainly don't feel I could run a successful business and pay overhead on 50k impressions a month. I will certainly take a look at the Versant line. Are there certain models to avoid on the used market? Thanks

    It varies, being a part-time gig that I hardly advertise. But, I'd say that it is probably 20,000-30,000/mo. currently. But, of course, I do plan to slowly expand that (reliable equipment would make me more apt to take on more work).

    Versatile, Reliable, Beginner Press

    So, the conclusion among most people about my recently acquired Konica C8000 is that I should get rid of it before it causes me more trouble and get something different. I'm running it; but, it has been a struggle with every job to keep the thing going. I just finished 3,000 NCR forms on my...
