BT"W 'JayDa' the coverage will probably be above average a lot of the time. Maybe the new generation models 1200/1051 is more improved over the 1050 you've experienced.
Yes, I agree, the 1200 seems to be light years ahead of what I'm currently running. I have two of them sitting here, with no place to put them until I move next month....waiting sucks!
I only mention coverage, because even with the "toner recovery" systems that KM has installed, they still run very dirty. Granted, this probably wasn't the right machine for my purpose, but live and learn I suppose.
We've had a 1051 (same engine as the 1200) for exactly a year and are pretty happy. I've just run about 70,000 clicks over the last two days and it hardly missed a beat. The suction-fed high-cap trays are recommended.
When I bought this machine there were some very tempting clearance deals about on the older 1050 model. I ran print tests on both systems and found the 1051 way ahead of the 1050, particularly on solids. As others have said, the new engine is significantly different from the old one and, in my view, was worth the extra money.
what are the cons if there are any?
what equipment did you use before?
