Re: EastCoast Franken Storm
We faired pretty well in NH, just lost power for 6 hours, but our wood stove kept us warm. My old neighborhood (Gerritsen Beach) Brooklyn was devastated. My brother and my friend tell me that they each had 6 feet+ water in their basements. They say the whole neighborhood is under water. My brother had to wade through chest deep water just to make it home from work. Keep them in your prayers, it will be a while before they return to normal. Vince

Re: 3800C, duplex 90lb??
the 3800c can run any paper weight you can find through the bypass. that being said, the maximum "recommended weight" is 48lb. the fuser will not run heavier paper for any length of time. you can drive your car on the beach but it does not mean it should be driven on the beach.

Re: Jam Frequency
Jomama and DScott, I agree that both keeping machines clean and customer knowledgeable is Key, along with performing PM's on schedule. I guess everyone (including me) is a bit hesitant to put a NUMBER to the question of jam frequency that is acceptable. We all have SOME equipment that will "go PM to PM".Let's remove the top 10% of the performers, and remove the bottom 10% of performers, and come up with a jam frequency #! You go first, and I'll give my rule of thumb. I am pretty sure Neal...

Re: Vacation
I went on vacation this month to Myrtle Beach. I may go back next year, but I will remember not to carry the cell phone with me! In one week, 9 calls came from customers wanting additional training, 7 calls from the office because they had questions on leads that were coming in for me, and 1 call from the boss, asking if I was enjoying myself. When he called, I told him to hang on a minute while I lined up my putt. As for sales after the vacation, it was like I never left.
