Re: JOINT STATEMENT BY SHARP ELECTRONICS CORPORATION AND EDWARD MCLAUGHLIN
These are all very interesting comments. Not sure if anyone has seen the videos and new interface on the color systems. Watch those videos on youtube and see yes that is a cool interface but is it really practical? From talking with others this is a very confusing non-friendly user interface compared to the previous MX color series. I think this is going to hurt this color series in the long run. The real challenge comes when there are MX units in an account then add this Aries series. Or...

Re: MP9000 vs Pro 907EX
I'm now out of the biz, retired, but the Sales Information Guides available on-line have a matrix in the back that shows compatibility of accessories. Also that are detailed specs on each accessory) so that you can make sure the customers needs can be met with your offering. As I recall there are significant limitations with the various booklet makers. Also remember that booklet makers fold 11x17 (12x18's) and there are click charges to consider. Also the cover inserter can be utilized to...

Re: 60/75 FOLDING
I just saw this Friday myself and have not had a chance to look in to it (sounds like something firmware should be able to fix). There was some new firmware released late last week to make it able to fold/staple 8.5x14. Thanks! Lee

Re: 60/75 FOLDING
don't do it. At least we have had terrible luck. i have found that the system needs the stapled sheets in order to stabilize the folding. if you don't staple two + sheets, try to fold just one, it will be very inconsistent. Good Luck Randy

Re: Canon IR105 'Z' Folder
And it is an additional option for the Saddle Stitch Finisher (That finisher has a $10,500 List and the folder has a $5700 list). Compare that to a $5200 list on our SR860 and if you want to get really carried away the list on the SR85 Booklet Maker is only $9750 and will be available for the 2090,2105 soon. (Though I don't think it can "Z" fold. Another consideration is that you can buy a folding unit that will do ALL of your folding off line for less than $3000.00. That's my 2 cents worth!

Re: Canon IR105 'Z' Folder
I didn't check the spec's, but from what I have experienced it does not slow down the speed of the copier. But I have had some customers complain that it cannot Z fold to the edge on the last fold. Canon designed it to leave a 6mm gap for some reason and it cannot be adjusted to compensate. Most companies that have interest in using the Z fold to insert ledger documents into letter spec books are used to have a "clean" edge fold. Also, the Z fold is only an option if used in conjunction with...

Re: 60/75 FOLDING
this saddle stitch finisher is not designed to fold one sheet of paper.mainly because it will not staple one sheet of paper.it uses the staples to align the paper for proper folding.so though we can get one sheet to fold,it will not fold straight or consistent.

Re: C MP4500spf
Since you're getting folded output, I assume you have the correct finisher, but just for the record, the booklet finisher is the SR3020 for the MP C4500 SPF. If you choose 2 center staples in the driver and the output is on a single sheet, you will get folded, but unstapled documents. This is the only way to get folded without stapling. It should be impossible to get multiple pages to fold without stapling.

Re: C MP4500spf
Just make sure that the actual finisher is the SR3020, not just the accessory in the driver. If it won't fold/saddle-stitch, I would be willing to bet it's not the right finisher. Keep me posted.

Re: carrier sheets
Carrier sheets are like huge file folders made out of a thin but durable plastic. The drawing is inserted into the carrier sheet up to the point where the fold is. They come in various widths for various drawing sizes. Tracing paper is a good application for using them. Ricoh used to carry them but I do not think they do anymore. Here is Detroit, we used to buy them from a 3rd party company but the supplier we used no longer carries them. So, they can be handy but I do not know where to buy...

Re: Need help with Win2003 SBS
I had this problem on my very 1st SMB setup. Jayson G helped me figure this out. The folder you created most likely did not set up the correct permissions because the server was upgraded and not a new install. You have to find an existing folder you can scan to. Once you find the fold copy and rename it and you will be all set. Good Luck

Re: Duplexed Copies
Hi...I would rotate the original & paper 90 degrees (if size allows) to see if the problem could be related to the paper grain. A crease/fold down the middle will lift the paper up just enough to prevent image transfer...the paper grain in a "cooked" sheet might be doing the same. Greg.
