Haha! Something pretty funny in with one of the links below. "Moving closer to the paperless office". This was fifteen years ago.
Do you remember the Ricoh C1224? Was a color MFP that had a speed of 12 pages per minute in color and 24 pages per minute in black. Needless to say that Ricoh never informed sales that the copier would go into auto calibrate during a print or copy run for up to minutes! Relive that experience with the threads below
Enjoy the threads from 15 years ago this week.

Xerox also scaled back a business that makes wide-format printers for engineers and architects. That was one reason the company completely vacated two buildings in East Rochester with 170,000 square feet of space. Xerox’s cutbacks also resulted in extra space at company-owned buildings downtown and in Webster and Henrietta.

Re: Printing to Aficio 650 from AutoCad
Graham, I believe that they would not be able to print directly from autocad unless they converted the files to a .plt extension. I am not sure if the postscript option will allow you to print direct without the file conversion. I have autocad lite 2000 on my laptop and could send you a few .plt files. All you have to do to convert the files to that format is check the plot to file box in autocad when you are printing. It will create a PLT file instead of a DWG file and you should be able to do

Re: 1060's & Mac
You need to make sure that you have the PostScript option installed. You will not be able to print from the DOC server or use anything like scan router, DTB etc. Just remember, all of the applications that come with it are windows based and all you can really do is print and scan to email if their network will support it. You will have to install the accessories manually and then you can use them. Otherwise, that should be the only major thing

Re: 1060's & Mac
So what scanning do you have, just Twain? Also, do you have any job binder type features or not? The network right now is one mac with a color laser printer connected with a USB cable. I will have to get them to run a crossover CAT5 cable so they can print directly to the 1060 without setting up a router etc.

Re: Continued 1224 stuff...

Re: Continued 1224 stuff...
Yeah, after cruching some numbers, I thought about moving the CL3000 to the CL 5000 and add duplexing, another paper draw and the finsiher.

However, we have successfully sold "Bate Stamping" on lessor units using a compination of User Stamp and Page Numbering.
