Alex, I just googled "7450, awards" - check it out! They said it's meant for graphic design department. As a former and still, at times designer - that's a pretty big thing to say.

Trish, that's terrible you went through that. In another conversation on this site I pretty much said the same thing about Ikon's inability to service their re-labled Konica Minolta machines. You have a bad taste in you mouth about the product for good reason, but please take this under...

No worries. That is absolutely true, not only does it jam, but it puts roller marks on all the pages, if you have the finisher attached. The C500 wasn't the best, but for the products out at that time, it was ground-breaking. Yes. The toner is really different. But the definition in the fine...

If you don't slow down the machine, as you said previously this will happen. Also, if you do heavy stock the machine slows WAY down, and have you had problems duplexing heavy stock? If you run kromekote, the max duplex weight is 220gms, are you running CS1 or 2? How about variable data? any...

what volume did you commit to?

Every time I have seen samples printed on wax-based Xerox I run my thumb across it with my nail and it scratches off. How hot is it there? Not very, we have been in a wet period for 2 months (there were 3 days of sun in June), you?

Toner is different. More detail, better fill, more definition. But seriously... check out the 65 HC... http://www.konicaminolta.eu/business-solutions/products/production-printing-systems/colour/bizhub-pro-c65hc/key-features-and-benefits.html

Did you buy it yet, I hope not... The Bizhub 65 HC (High Chroma) will give you the vibrant color and definition you are looking for. As for the Xerox product... Hopefully you aren't trying to mail these pieces, because of the cracking and peeling of the wax-based toner. And god-forbid you run...

The click rate is based on volume. If you go direct to the manufacturer, there are some benefits... They dealer is given the choice to send their techs for the multiple stages of training. This costs them money and in most cases, they opt out. They are not able to contact the Tech Division at...

You get a 3 year warranty with the product, when did you get it? You can call the 1800 number for printer support if you still have the warranty. Check it out.

The 8050 is a 6 or 7 year old product. Great for it's time, but the time is over. The finisher was renowned for creating streaks and curl. Take a look at the 5501, you will be able to do more stapled sets and booklet "flat" pages with that model and the color is 1000 times better with the new toner.

You should move up to the Bizhub products to get the HD Polymerized toner. You would be amazed at the color variations. If you move to a C203 you would be able to Calibrate the machine off the glass when the color gradations went flat.

Hi all, If you bought it from Konica minolta direct you are entitled to 6 hours of professional services training. 2 sided printing from the driver is impossible from PhotoShop or Illustrator. I was a designer for 10 years. You would have to manually duplex it just as indolering said. PhotoShop...
