30 bin Collator, 3 head stitcher, folder & face trimmer. Works awesome, we lost the one account we really used this and purchased the machine for. We are really fairly small operation and can run everything we usually do on our 10 bin collator and stitcher unit.

I am just hoping someone out there may have a minute to bale me out of this huge bind i have found myself in. (PLEASE - PLEASE - PLEASE) I had to take apart the internal unit to replace one of the hoses and unclogg the internals... long story short i unplugged the most of the wiring...

I usually always 90% of the time run YMCK, and have been able to stay consitant and True without any difficulty.

I was wondering if anybody has changed the hydro. oil for there polar 66 cutter. The tech. said it was fairly easy to do if we wanted to do it ourselves and breifly described how to do it. This was over a year ago and i don't really remember all the steps.

We had a very similar issue with our polar cutter... but there were also other random flaws. The problem became worse and worse over time. We finally got a technician to come in and he eliminated all the possible problems narrowing it down to something in the mother board. The tech. did not work...

I have printed several 4 color jobs on a single color Davidson 501 & Multi 1250 years and years ago. You are right as far as being a little time consuming. This takes some time, practice and getting used to the machine to be able to fine tune machine and registration. But you can do it if you...

Printer71 Are you trying to tell me I'm long winded and i should've just said go with the 3304!!!

If this is going to be a hobbie and interest of yours to start out i would find and older single color press (they are a dime a dozen) to spend the money you are looking at it sounds like you can test the waters for awhile. I hate giving advice but take your time there is a hell of alot to learn...

Are you running any process color work off your 2 color machine now? The QM's print envelopes great (anybody can run it) The Ryobi can be difficult even for the expeirenced pressman. The set up takes alot more time... We have an envelope feeder for our Ryobi but still we run 95% of our...

I am looking at meeting the new Board of Pharmacy specs. for the Rx. printing. can anybody give me some insight or advice with printing with this ink and working with the state to get certified.

We have both in our shop (3302 & QM-46) We run %100 of our process work on the 3302

I may have the solution for you. I had the same problem setting up our astro to our 3302. I had no clue even where to start, i had astro send me a demo DVD on setting it up, it was extremely helpful. If i can find that DVD around i can send that to you. If i don't have it Astro should be able...

With you Kodak system, what do you mean your pre-press dept guys were mixing it wrong? Were they the ratio wrong?

I will wash up between sides and even during runs when it gets bad

That really sounds like a lot, ours suggests between 2-4oz per gallon. What kind of dampening system are you running?

If the finished product is just one color and you run 10,000 why would you want to run it digitally? How often do you run this? Is this the only item you run? Are you a print shop? I guess i am a little confused with what you are looking at doing.

The tech had made some more minor adjustments which seems to help. The biggest improvement of all was switching from a tack-12 to a tack-14. I get double run lengths on the plates but it still is not where it should be. I need to really examine my fountain solution and make adjustments. If...

we run an Astro envelope feeder. If this is your press of choice in the shop for running envelopes then i would look long and hard for a feeder. You can run non stop (no cranking up and down). Our pressman can have it set up within a few minutes. Like anything it sure makes the pressmans life...

I have a tech here right now going back through the press. We are running a 20k job that is 2/6. I ran into the same problem especially on the one unit specifically. I am running powder at a bare min. but still lost the image after 7500. So far he has found that the pressure in that specific...

As i am sure you already know by now. You are really not selling printing you are selling yourself. If you are trying to get all fancy with the terminalogy and different processes then you are just going to sound even dumber. Most people don't care or are impressed by printing technicalities...
