Our lease was up on our Indigo 5500 some time ago and have opted to add a lower cost press to take some of the load off our iGen4.
Some of our customers are very picky, so I would plan on diverting the less picky customers to one of the following machines.
Konica
Ricoh
Xerox smaller machines
I am dealing direct with Xerox, Konica and Ricoh, service should be ok with all of them in our area.
I keep reading the stories of color shift and registration issues etc and am dreading this move but with new technologies looming only a couple of years away and our volumes rising, the boss would rather tough it out.
I would hope that the machines can handle 100k 12x18 clicks per mo. Substrates most used are 10,12,14 pt C2S and 100#Gloss Text.
Which would give us the best bang for the buck, also specify model, I know some models outperform others so I left out model though it's in our budget to get any of these machines.
Thanks for your comments
