Now the big question. When and where is the training going to be?

[blackcat4866]

The rumor is that it will be done at the regional offices when enough participants have signed up. =^..^=

[luis8832]

Is it true kyocera shut down their training facility in Dallas?

[Morlock49]

Is it true kyocera shut down their training facility in Dallas?

I dont think they have shut it down, but there have been some staff changes, for instance Ed is now back on the road as a tech and I think some others have gone back to being techs. I heard most of this on the grape vine, so apologies if any info is wrong

[jmaister]

google is your friend.

"7550ci"

Maybe we just won't sell finishers.

Dallas is still open.. I have a class scheduled there next week. I have heard a rumor about Atlanta reopening. But, that's rumor

new model/new technology

i just did the Kyocera online pretraining for the new models due out...the new machines have a scary induction heating system with a complex way of using a copper section to cool the outside edges of the fusing roller..( the Konica C451 line use this and continually spin and squeek).... all kinds of new technology.. i hope this isnt going to be a problematic machine!
all trays will do 12X18..
the bypass up to 300g/m2..
enjoy!

Not many squeak, I thing less induction fuser squeak then lamp types! and if they do you just spray some "silicone grease 70" on the bearings and it all goes! Ricoh have this as well and there's is less problematic then the KM heaters (which I have had a few IH PSUs blown). but generally they are good enough. Induction heating is been around for a while, just only being put into copiers.

Lose the bypass tray so they aren't trying to print on particle board.

[Metalvoc]

Panasonic used induction heating on their color copiers. It was one of the few things on that device that worked consistently.

[aragul]

Lose the bypass tray so they aren't trying to print on particle board.

I meant that installing a finisher looks really annoying.

can't be as bad as some of the Konica machines.
