To Launch Holding Company

Gregory (Guest) · 8/5/038:57 AM

more than 1 trillion yen after sales totaled 559 billion yen at Konica and 528.1 billion yen at Minolta on a group basis. However, industry analysts said the performances of the two companies' photo copier and digital camera businesses lag far behind the leaders and the merged company is expected to remain in a tough environment. In the initial phase of the integration, the new company plans to push for sales promotion of Minolta's office-use color printers and Konica's optical equipment parts

Court Rules Against Xerox

Art Post (Guest) · 8/4/037:31 PM

not expected to have any immediate affect on the company's funding of the plan, the company said. The ruling comes as Xerox looks to grow sales of its equipment after enduring years of troubling issues, including a federal probe into its accounting practices. Earlier this week, the company posted slightly lower second-quarter earnings, as weak demand for supplies and services overshadowed improving sales of new copiers and printers. Shares of Xerox closed on Friday at $10.65, off 15 cents.

Re: Halftones w/JP8500 & Quark

JasonR · 8/5/038:43 AM

thing, since there are only so many dots in the image on the duplicator, and means your files will print faster. When printing to a color copier however, this is a bad thing, since they don't use dots, a low LPI setting will result in "jaggy" images due to the low resolution. Last, i've noticed the LPI setting greatly affects the smothness of Color Blends in Quark. THis only applies to actual blends you create in Quark.

Re: 400 DPI IMAGE MOVEMENT!!!

Old Glory · 8/1/039:39 AM

We must not forget the Riso V8000 2-color single-pass system. I also can't speak for registration variance Riso vs Ricoh nor TC-II vs. 2 passes. I'm mearly suggesting that it makes for a compelling argument...whether it actually holds water, I don't know. Riso quotes a +or- one millimeter as an "acceptible variance on their current product line not counting the V8000. I don't sell the Ricoh nor do I compete against it so I can't speak to the registration or lack thereof.

Re: 400 DPI IMAGE MOVEMENT!!!

bmiller (Guest) · 8/1/0310:07 AM

I thought that 1 mm would be acceptable as well. I think that it is hard to compete trying to sell a dup and a tc11 when there is competitive 1 pass system that will lay two colors well and consistently. I wonder if, in the long term, the RICOH will stay consistent with a certain margin on movment, and the riso will start going all over the place. That I do not know, but that is the argument my higher ups are sticking to. I appreciate everyones input. Thanks again, Brian

If you need the speed of the 1045 for the copy side than you're stuck with Global or SR Pro, if you can slow things up a bit, and maybe sell the idea of a little color to make up for the speed differential than try selling the new 1232 with a print/scan option. This will scan to e-mail just like the 1060. We got a 1224 and 1232 in the showroom this week and they seem pretty solid.

First of all, the 1045P comes with 64MB of memory if I'm not mistaken. Secondly, I suspect the reason why user stamp is greyed out is because there hasn't been one saved there yet. Go to user tools-copier settings-Stamp-User Stamp-Program/Delete and save a user stamp. Then see if it is still greyed out.

I know I need ScanRouter Pro, but they want everyone to be able to retrieve the faxes from that PC via their PC.

We then unpause the printer and watch it run. If it stops and seems to hang after printing about 10 test pages, there is a little registry edit that will work miracles. None of this has anything to do with the ScanRouter software, but if they have had relatively slow printers and not experienced this, they will blame your printer/software for

Increasingly, however, it is possible to print directly from the electronic version, either by sending it to a high-resolution laser printer or to a special device that can generate plates directly from electronic elements rather than from photographs.
