    AB Dick Century 3500-S vs. Ryobi 3302 for process color work

    For a combination of some acceptable-quality process color work in two passes and some 2-color and black and white jobs, which is a better press: an A.B. Dick Century 3500-S with stream feeder or a Ryobi 3302? Will only be only running ~1/2 million impressions a year. Do these presses have acceptable registration for doing process color jobs? Why would you recommend one over the other?

    The ABDick 3500-S was likely capable of slightly better quality when new, but depending on your area, you will likely find it a lot easier to get parts and service for a Ryobi 3302 than for a Dick 3500.
