    Sharp MX 3100 Customer wants to run 65,000 copies a moth... Is this possible

    I have having trouble finding the rating on this copier... Is this possible. I know I will have to change the developer every month. I would imagine I could do it for a year...

    Sharp rates it at 90K per month average. I usually divide that number in half for a realistic number. You could probably maintain at 45K per month. At 65K you'll probably kill it. =^..^=
    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.

        You could place another MX3100, and run them tandem for copying or printing - this would give them some redundancy if one machine needs work performed.
        Agree with BC that 65k would really be pushing it over a period of time.
