    Duplo replacement for my RISO 3770...Model and Questions

    I've been thinking of perhaps upgrading from my riso GR3770 to a Duplo. I do a small run of about 10,000 copies per week and need two color output. I can't afford a new machine and I'm thinking of getting a Duplo just coming off lease. We have neither a RISO or Duplo dealer in my area.

    Any recommendations on Model of Duplo I should be looking for or even better which models to avoid?

    With my above noted copy runs, my RISO has been running like a sewing machine for the past several years... but I know the parts are supposedly getting harder to find for RISO and someone told me that the Duplos are able to scan images at a much higher resolution. Are they as reliable as my old RISO?

    How does the costs of consumables compare to RISO?

    Any ideas on what copy count would be considered too high on a used Duplo?

    Thanks for your advice.

      If you want to want to compare, then you need to compare apples with apples!
      The duplo is far different from the Riso and so is the backup service!
      Duplo parts and consumables cheaper but Riso more reliable in colder weather conditions as far as ink flow is concerned. The paper feed unit of the Riso is also better than the Duplo
      I work on both these models as well as the Priport's and prefer the Riso above all.
      What? HuH?
