Canon yeah right I don't know about all the canon stuff but I installed two c900's in the past week and both places happened to have a CLC4000. The first place kept saying the CLC4000 was crap and jammed all the time and the registration was bad. I figured it probably wasn't that bad and it was the age or they were doing something wrong. Well the second account told me the same thing about their CLC4000 so ....

The first one I installed ran 18K in the first few days with no jams the one I did today hasn't run anything yet.

It seems pretty good but but we don't have any with enough prints yet to say for sure.

Does anyone have one with some usage on it ?

I Have a C900 with 800k prints on it and it was put in in Nov. 2009. As far as the copies between pm's it is great. The only problems I have had is with oil on the back side of the copies when doing thick glossy stock. If the customer can learn how to run them well they will do just about any paper types they will... I work on both the Canon Clc series, and the Cp konica series, and the Ricoh is far a better machine.

Please give your current views on Ricoh 900. Your machine is by now 14months old. Please also let me know your current meter reading

There is a new oil-less version, the Pro C901s . It won't yield the same glossy look as the current machine (more of a matt finish) but should be a good runner. We've had pains with the Pro C900s because the customer wanted to run some specific stocks, issues with MicroPress, and of course a fuser the couldn't surpass 150k.
