We are in the process of looking at these two machines and I have a couple of questions for this group.
Xerox qualifies Xerox papers only and I've heard different opinions regarding whether or not I could run non-certified papers through the 800. Some have said as long as I run digital papers I should be fine but my thought is, and from what I've also heard, if I start having issues Xerox would question my use of stock not qualified by Xerox. I would think this would could be a real service issue so most would recommend using the more expensive Xerox papers to alleviate finger pointing. I would like to know what the 800 users recommend.
Concerning the optional clear toner on the 800, are you seeing much request for this?
I did a water test on a C8000 sheet and the Xerox 800 sheet where I tried to duplicate rain drops on the sheet. After sitting on the sheet for 2 minutes and gently wiping the excess, the Xerox toner was removed when wiped off but the C8000 sheet was fine. Are users concerned with how a digital sheet will hold up to "rain" and is this typical of a toner based product. I was quite impressed that the Konica sheet showed no signs of degrading.
Thanks for the feedback.
