    Forget the 3100

    Picky graphics people prefer the copies on 3200
    5180 fuser is very expensive, you can rebuild 3200 fuser
    5180 drums cost a bit less than 3200
    evrything else is about equal.
    I have seen 5180 with over 2 million copies.

        Hello, just to add me 2c's worth:

        As has already been said the iRC3220 is maginally the better machine not withstanding the drums cost more that the iRC4080/4580/5185 range and with the fact a new fuser for the 4580's id hideiously expensive (in certain conditions you can replace parts but if they throw an error code - forget it)

        If your company insist on going down the 4580 route go for the CLC4040/5151. Apart from toner they are the same machines as the 4580's but as they come with the fiery the quality is a hell of a lot better.

        But in your case head for the iRC3220's.

          I couldn't agree more that graphic houses hate the 5180/ 5185.

          Every one I ever had (even with a Fiery) in a graphics shop or color critical location drove me nuts.

          The worst ones were the customers who had a 3220 and then "ugraded" to a 5185 when the lease was up.
