  5. Discussion New HP Latex 570

    The paper company we purchased from did do some cursory training on the printer AND Onyx, but it was roughly half a day. It got us printing, but often this is the challenge with a new machine: we don't know what we don't know, so coming up with the right questions isn't so easy. It's been a...

    We have a Colex Sharpcut, which has worked well for us. My operator says that the blades for theCoroplast tool (https://www.colex.com/product/coroplast-corrugated-knife/) have been really brittle lately. I'll provide feedback to Colex, but it's also helpful to know if I have other supplier...

  9. Stay CS6? Or Upgrade to CC? What am I gaining?

    The thing about CC is that once that promo pricing runs out, you're stuck at $70/ x # of users, forever. There's been zero retention specials, long time customer appreciation specials, no price adjustments, no sales.
