    [Misc] IC- 601 Controller vs. Fiery

    Just curious to get feedback from the field on the Konica IC-601 Controller versus Fiery Controller on a Bizhub PRESS C6000/C7000.

    Any feedback would be great; Known issues / Pros/ Cons? We are considering selling and supporting these.

    Thanks!

    Here are the differences that I wrestled with:

    1) The IC-601 is PC based, and will not function in a Mac environment.
    2) The IC-601 requires the HDD, Preview Kit, and Spectrophotometer. The Fiery does not require the HDD or Preview Kit, and uses the ES-1000 Spectrophotometer (different type).
    3) The Fiery is ~$10K more expensive.
    4) The Fiery will work in either a Mac or PC environment.

    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.
