Our trusty Xerox DC5000 with CREO rip is at the end of lease in 2 months and on paper it looks like the 700i can do everything the 5000 can do. It will be a good opportunity to save $1K+ a month on the lease cost but am I going to be happy with the 700i. Are these machines really in the same league.
I have looked at the KM6000, it appears to be built like a tank just like the DC5000, but because of the great relationship/service we receive from our techs I'll probably stick with Xerox. (Also have 2 xerox BW's and 1 small Xerox color)
I guess the only real alternatives to the 700i would be the 8080, 770 has the inline spectrophotometer but appears otherwise to be a 700i in disguise.
Anybody spent any real time comparing these machines, what are your thoughts ?
