    Machines that you dont like

    I was just wondering after i saw a few people complaininga bout certain machines or techs who had problems with the same machines over and ver again:

    Which Machines do you not like at all and would you like to remove / replace as soon as you have the chance?

    I guess top 5 is the C3350i

    3 most awful to work on were the royal 110,rbc1,and the 2020!, another nightmare the color7. compared to these the newer machines are easy, got to grin when i hear techs complaining about them.

    A4 KM models/derivatives. Every single A4 bizhub I worked on is worse than worst A3 bizhub I ever touched.

    Going back a long time, for me the analog Minolta EP-4230 was the most idiotic construction. The development was done in the beginning by a German factory near Stuttgart called Develop. When Minolta acquired Develop they inherited the rotten design and were trying to improve it be redesigning it for over a year in Japan by using parts from the EP-4300. The result was still clunky. Replacing the paper feed rollers not alone was a nightmare. Customer could not remove himself, certain simple paper jams. A technician had to go there, removing guides and other stuff to reach the paper jam.

    Agreed, I only have one C3350i here and it's a pile of crap. Already needs new memory or MFP board. C8000 always makes me cringe as well.
