How is machine on 170 or lighter coated stock. Do you get many jams in RU unit.
Thanks for information Racefreak

Not sure what the gram weight is on this but they run a lot of 80# text weight. I believe that's around 150 or so. That runs fine no jams in the RU at all. If the humidifier is installed, you might need to check the cams on the water rollers. I did have a case where one of the cams was off and was applying a very light coat of water when the rollers were supposed to be cammed open. It caused so questionable jamming only on a Williamsburg paper. I believe the weight was around 136.

Ya it's running well now on lighter stock,
I think it was just a height adjustment needed at RU unit

We have installed three C8000, with several problems of parts life. After consult with technical boss and calculate real cost we conclude the our price of print is more expensive compared with C7000 for example, and omitting repair time (fuser and transfer with complications). But for client is a wonderfull machine.

There was a repo'ed C8000, double fuser, ru, finisher on ebay for 15K, tried to grab it for 10K, and it was gone at 15K in 4 hours.

That would of been a nice hit.


Don't know if i would of kept it in my shop or flipped.... but I've played around with the c8000 and its impressive machine we run alot of 9 and 12PT Coated and C2S so having a machine that can duplex 300gsm instead of the current 250gsm is really a huge improvement in our market.

Everyone is right about the price, but i am sure when the new C7001s start to hit they will start to drop the C8000 for less, maybe 30K a unit some deal with the C6500 when the C6501's arrived and so on with the C6501's when the C7000 series arrived.

i was told they fixed the life issues with a new intermediate transfer system on the C8000 is this not true...

i like going 300K+ between pm's - i get 150K-180K before DV fails on my C6501 and C7000 (a little longer)
