Topic Title

Our firm is deciding on a new printer and/or copier. Does anyone have any experience with an Oce TDS-300 or a KIP 2001? We were also thinking of just getting the KIP 1880 and living with the plotter we have. What are your opinions please?
-Thanks

We have a kip 4000 at our office. It's a couple years old. We run couple hundred feet a day thru it. Got to change out rolls almost evey day. I like the fact that there are folders you can drop your image files like tif, pdf, plt etc in and it prints them right out. We use a print driver that saves a tif image on your computer so it can be viewed in photoshop easy and marked up in there.

I am not sure how many feet it runs a minute. Usually all the sets 50ish sheets take less than 5mins. So its probley 10 sheets a minute there abouts.

Once you flip the switch and windows boots up on the printer it does not take longer than 5 secs for it to start printing once you hit print.

One thing I don't like is the controler is Nt only. I was told a 2000/xp driver is suposta be out someday but they don't seem to be in a hurry.
