    I HATE iGENS

    We got rid of the iGen 3's and have an HP indigo 7600 now. The transition has been quite painful. I prefer the iGen.

    When FreeFlow Freezes On Processing A Job....

    What problems did you run in to in the SSD install and how did you overcome them. I have been trying to get larger than 70MB drives for years. Xerox always said no and I have no experience with this OS.

    When FreeFlow Freezes On Processing A Job....

    Not that I know of but be aware that I have had the jobs still be there on the restart and it only caused more problems. You are generally screwed. You either wait for the process to end or spend, what could be, the same time waiting for a restart. I'd be interested in other experiences and...

    Just turn the RDS off and leave it off. It is nothing but a pita.

    Just watch out for when the vector color doesn't match the raster color.

    Igen color tools

    Do you mean the differences between GRACOL, SWOP, Xerox iGen Color, etc.?

    Font issues

    A couple of issues going on here. First, the Black ink is on the 90 degree angle on the iGen. Test it out, print a 50% black in a thin font around 8 - 10 point. Your vertical lines in the T, I, N, etc will be gone in most of the characters. Lastly, grey can separate into C,M,Y with little to no...

    Start Up Shift Maintenance

    If it has been running I would just clean the grids and wires, maybe clean the tab and check the Fuser strippers for paper dust. I clean off the Fuser roll and check it over. You know - the 50k HFSI. If it is cold I pull out the Fuser and then push it right back so the iGen heats up. I clean the...

    Cyan Streak Third Of The Way Up

    A streak like you described sounds more like it is rubbing against something vs all of the parts that you replaced. Does the streak run in the process direction? Is it on every sheet, on both sides or just one side? I would look if it lines up with the stripper fingers or in the fuser area. Can...

    problem with percentages.

    IMO there isn't much you can do other than drop the line screen down. There should be a few sheets of printed paper taped up inside the door. These sheets should represent the best that your iGen can print. If yours isn't printing as well as those sheets then check your FSI's or call for service.

    Work Order

    I used to have a Xerox iGen recommended work order. It was a sheet that you fill out for printing jobs. The info recorded on the sheet was size, paper, qty, etc. Anyway, I lost the sheet. Does anyone have one or would you send me one that you use? Message me for my addy or upload it to...

    PR Belt IB-OB Hot area

    I spoke with an analyst about this. I asked if the belt could be "flat-spotted" from sitting too long. He said it could be possible that the belt is retaining a shape until it is warmed up. Perhaps at the top where the belt takes a big bend. He wanted me to try an figure out where the bulge or...

    iGen4 90?

    Talk here is an iGen4-90 may be replacing the pos iGen3-90 we currently have. Did they even make an iGen4-90?

    But you cannot program two PDFs to print at the same time.

    The Wiki of Fault Codes!

    What was the last thing done previous to the error or does it happen often? I would try a new PR belt, double check the cleaning blade, make sure the charge stations are seated correctly. Last, shut the iGen, PSIP and DFE down for 10 -15 minutes and then power up again.

    Toner Build up on Wire Mods

    Try a new toner filter and check the vacuum lines for clogs. It sounds like the toner isn't being removed properly.

    Toner scratching off 100# Gloss Stock...

    If you really need to try and scratch off the ink then is it an issue? The ink is just plastic that is melted onto the surface of the media. The ink is not absorbed into the media at all like offset printing. Do you have the enhance image permanence option? It is my understanding that this...

    Igen 3 - Printing files with layering and transparency

    Two things to try. One, turn off Pantone processing. Two, re-fry the PDF to 1.3 flattened PDF. Save the PDF as PS and drop back on to Distiller at Press settings. This will flatten the PDF transparency layers. Watch for trapping issues or just turn off trapping. If you need more info on...
