can anyone explain to me...why the new 45 series r selling like crazy...konica & Canon are running scared...i just find out they r back to the drawing boards to replace their segment 3 copiers to compete with KYO...how much of the info is true on that new consumer report article...

Dummietek..spice the boards is my middle name..go kyo...

I guess can be selling like crazy, but how are people getting them. Everything I order in new line has been back ordered. On last order finisher and machine was back ordered.Was told couls be a month or so into stock in Calif. warehouse.

Ya, 15 tech pubs and a firmware update, and I have not seen one come through the shop yet. Hate to sound negative, but ima take a wait and see on these before i proclaim my love.

first two 4550's out of the box had BAD cyan developers! Just received our second shipment and of course all 7 STANDS and 1 booklet folder were B/O.

Oh and the first order we placed 4/30 had 1 7550 and 1 6550 system. We JUST got them in this week...

Take care moving them.

Our first one went out last week, to arrive with the print card cage mangled and the covers on the left side broken. Somehow the print card survived.

Covers backordered. =^..^=

Have 2 4550 out and seem to be working fine no problems customers luv them.

Just fine here also

Running fine here also.

So far so good

What to you guys think about the copy quality ?
its seems like the solid fill is week ,over all on the lighter side. I have compare several of out 3550ci, 45550ci, 5550ci
the fill of solid blocks are week
like work and other things seem fine but the solid fill is week on all the machine that we have

have you played around with the darkness settings you can bump it up 3 levels in the user adjustments.

Yes I have done that and some others it makes the copy darker but it does not help with solid fill

Thanks for the heads-up Muleyman on the bad dev units. Ordered a set last week and now have a new install where the cyan dev went bad. Customer is hot but at least I have one in stock.
