bizhub 1050 bad ass

These are and were superb units. They should re release that unit forever. We would all make an easier living!!!!

Teach your customers how to clean the charge wire, replace the waste bottle, clean the scanner glass, then you will never hear from them again, unless they do something really, really dumb.

Canon NP 6216 and Minolta 1050-1054. First have 915k and seckond 896k....Users don't want to replace them and i must agree whit them

I worked on Minoltas from the 8600 days to the Di450. I am glad those days are over. Now we only sell Kyocera and I am very happy with this product line. The only weak spot was color, hopfully this new product line will fill that void.

BEST EVER

Most of you are too young to remember but...the best copier ever made was the Mita 900D.

I triple count the Canon iR3300 series! They are so reliable I can sell and service these 5 year old machines refurbished with a penny a page service contracts and make good money. The drum rebuild kits last longer than OEM's, I regularly get 70-90K out of them. I love these machines and will greatly miss them when they become obsolete!

Several years ago, I looked after a fleet of 10 Minolta DI-520's all at the same location. They were so good, I actually liked going there for service calls.... plus the chicks were hot at reception.... always a plus!
Those boxes really convinced me of Minolta being a top machine.
These days I would have to say the new Sharp MXM1100 Hercules box is really, really good. Have 2 clients, each have done almost 2Mil in less than a year, with no drama's at all. Very fast, very quiet (no clutches anywhere... all motors etc etc) and very reliable.
Overall, big Sharp & Minolta fan. Sharp MX color boxes are very good too.

Who made that new box for Sharp, or is it Sharp made, sure sounds like something from Toshiba, like the old AR 651 and 810 line.
And the cougar series and the old, SF 7320, 7370 were some good small machines.

Most of you are too young to remember but...the best copier ever made was the Mita 900D.

Yeah, but it didn't fold, duplex, scan, fax, sort, staple, recirculate, make booklets, saddle stitch, and, and, and.........

It was a good thing.

Just wait....

Till they put direct internet connection in or make them Blackberry compatible.

Till they put direct internet connection in or make them Blackberry compatible.

To late the latest Canon's can browse and print straight from the web and some accept connections from USB sticks, a bluetooth or Infra red connection is only a matter of time.

Canon and Konica Minolta's, dont have a specific choice

[K.I.S.S.]

I'll vote for the Ricoh FT5535 and variants.
Near the end of the analog period...these machines were no frills, basic B/W copiers. They modernized Ricoh's transfer belt, OPC & charge roller technology. They had reliable process control & toner add systems.

In my opinion, the KonicaMinolta Di 850 is the best running copier I have ever seen. It will run PM to PM (500K). I have heard these models going strong at 18 million clicks.
