    2 DC 240/250´s or 1 DC 5000 ???

    Well, for business cards I'm not so sure. I absolutely love our DC242 - great machine - but sheet registration is definitely its single weakest point. I think a larger xerox would do much better in this regard. Our 242 is fairly ok during a run, but despite using the fiery tray alignment it...

    Xerox DocuColor 252 or Ikon BP560/Konica Minolta 5501

    I guess it depends on what machines you're running the definition of 'fast' or 'slow' or cheap or pricey for that matter. I think our small xerox is fast compared to other machines in its class ($ range.) And that click rate seems extremely competitive to me. Where our xerox slows down is when...

    Xerox DocuColor 252 or Ikon BP560/Konica Minolta 5501

    I don't know what to make of the lack of demo machines -- we're off the beaten path here anyway so I don't have a feel for it. The 252 has been around for a while -- when we got our 242 a couple years ago it was a mostly-software update to the 240 which had been around already for a couple...

    Fiery Hot Folders with reg marks

    P.S. how long have you had your Duplo DC-645 and are you pleased with it? If it corrects skew per sheet based on the reg marks as advertised, that sounds pretty darn nice to go with digital machines with slightly imperfect registration which is always a thorn in my side a bit when doing smaller...

    Fiery Hot Folders with reg marks

    It appears no one here knows the answer to your question yet -- I only use my layout app to put on crop marks so I can't help you yet. You might also give the http://fieryforums.efi.com/ a try -- I believe they are manned by the guys at EFI now.

    Xerox DocuColor 252 or Ikon BP560/Konica Minolta 5501

    I've had a docucolor 242 for 22 months now and just under 600,000 11x17 on the meter. So far I've been really happy with it. I came very close to getting the KM550 because I really like our Ikon tech's skill and help, but the xerox deal was much much better and I liked the print quality from the...

    2 DC 240/250´s or 1 DC 5000 ???

    A tough decision, but not a bad one to have to make :) I only have one 242 right now, but since no one else has jumped in yet... In general I like the idea of having two machines so that if an issue develops, I can continue running at 1/2 speed at least. I like having a reference machine...

    Media issues

    Thanks Sean! But, I only have experience with the smaller canons -- I wish I had experience with the c7000, but not yet! So hopefully someone else will jump in.

    URGENT!! IRC2620 Drum levels, good or bad?

    100 = what canon says is 100% yield for the drum. I would guess those drums are about at the end of their life, but you may go up to 200 or 210% before having issues. I would anticipate the print quality will be a bit more "punchy" than with newer drums. As ours get closer to spent we lose the...
