What is the oldest machine you still service?

[vincent64]

Had a idea for new thread here,
What is the oldest machine you still see and service out in the field?

I will start it with a old Sharp SF-7320 at a school, last seen just before school ended this year, in May.

I guess our oldest one still on the books is a canon CD-4046 scanner, installed April 1999.

It's still going strong apart for the occasional call for a new battery unit. Over the past year we have been actively been encouraging our customers to up grade to new models with an emphasis on colour.

We also have a customer with a Sharp SF-2022 but this is on a chargeable call out basis and only so long as we have remaining spares and can lay our hands on toner.

i've got still a konica u-bix 112, a konica u-bix 112z and a u-bix 170z that our three private customers don't want absolutely change........as far as we have toners and parts!

I still have a few Sharp 2060 machines that are still working, although I've been able to offload much of their volume to newer machines.

I've since retired some older Sharp machines that I just refused to mess with anymore.

Well, I guess my wife is 41 now.

--- Well, I guess my wife is 41 now. --- OUCH!!!

WD-40 and duct tape, right? If it moves, the duct tape will fix it, and if it doesn't, the WD-40.

We had a couple of copiers in a Bakery place, which were NADs, installed in 1999.

I've worked on a Russian C1 in a school which was running on 2.4 Million copies!!!!!!! The customer refuses to renew the machine.

I know we have some analogs knocking about, and some copy-printers which are aging a bit.

Hmm,

Copier: Aficio 200/250 (just a very few left in the field) - we also have some Ricoh and Minolta analogue machines out there but I'm not doing these.

Fax: Minoltafax 2300, Ricoh Fax 06

Old machine

That would be a Canon NP6050 there was two of them, but one die !
I'm using that of parts !!!!

[Herrmann]

Two days ago, i get a call from a drugstore for clearing a paper jam.
On my arrive, i couldnt believe my eyes... i spotted a Canon PC10, a copier build in late 80's.

[kyoceradude]

Still have a few Mita DC-1415, DC-2055, DC-1824, DC-2360's under contract.....

I have an Army Reserve center that still has a Minolta EP3050. The thing's been obsolete since 2004, but since it's a government contract, they managed to get a long-term renewal just before the model went obsolete, and we had to keep servicing it long after we stopped making parts for it.

[vincent64]

Used to see some old SD 2060 and 2260 but most have gone bye bye.
I think churches are the worst for keeping old copiers.

QFT. Most get them used as donations in the first place, and then hold on to it until it falls apart.
