I own a 3000. Is there a way to upgrade the software to scan in color and send to a Design jet.
I do not have that option and would like an approximate price for budget purposes if its possible.

Thanks

You will need to contact a local dealer for this as KIP won't issue the options to the owner of the printer. If it hasn't been done already you may consider updating the printer OS at the same time.

Adding to what Mark said. It also depends on the serial number. 1050xxxx machines you will need to do upgrades to the scanner besides software.

Adding to what Chillin and Mark said.

If you have a 1051xxxx machine, you'd only need to get new keycodes to enable the color options.

If you have a 1050xxxx machine, and if you don't know already, KIP stop supporting 1050xxxx machines. But you can try, if you have this serial number. You'll need the DIGCOL3000KIT, which comes with a Color enablement chip that you'll have to add onto the Main board of the scanner. Also comes with a Reghost CD, software CD and manuals. You can reference KIP TECH BULLETIN TB-K105-042 Color Upgrade Kit, if you have the old TBs. Either way, I think you'll be spending lots of money on it.

Thank you for the info. My machine is 10511418. I will call again where I bought it now that I have more info. Maybe they will call me back this time. I did get the software on the machine upgraded 2 years ago.

All you probably need is the color key code. For that model any Kip dealer can help you out.
