APPARENTLY THE KIP 900 SERIES HAS THE SAME TECHNICAL PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS AS THE 800 SERIES ....OR KIP HAS PUT A LID ON TECHNICAL ISSUES FOR THE 900 SERIES .....HOLDING TECHS AT GUNPOINT!! |

Sorry, but some of us got away from the KIP color just to stay away from all the problems. PageWide is much better ( for line drawing )then the KIPs. Why put up with all the headaches that come with KIP. |

IT WOULD SEEM THAT WAY FOR U 'JEDI 'BUT THE FACT OF THE MATTER FOR ALL OF YOU OUT THERE IS THAT UNTIL U HAVE SEEN AN ACTUAL PRINT FROM THE PAGEWIDE (LINE OR OTHERWISE) AGAINST THE KIP .....U WOULD KNOW YOUR MONEY IS ON THE KIP......AS THE THE SO CALLED PROBLEMS THAT COME WITH THE KIP ITS YOUR POOR KNOWLEDGE OF IT THAT DRIVES YOU AWAY FROM THE FACTS .....WATER RESISTANT, FADE RESISTANT, SPEED,CHOICE OF SUBSTRATE ,AND A BUNCH OF TECHS DEDICATED TO IT...THATS THE REASON WERE ON THIS FORUM.....LETS FACE IT PAGEWIDES HAVE EQUALLY THE AMOUNT OF PROBLEMS WHEN IT COMES TO AGE.....AND THE THE ONE TABOO IT HAS IS 'BANDING WHEN U LEAST EXPECT IT ON A BULK RUN'........SO NO MACHINE IS WITHOUT ITS PROBLEMS......
ONLY TRUST THOSE THAT DELIVER...KIP...WHEN PUSH COMES TO SHOVE...!!
MY MONEY IS STILL AFTER 25 YEARS OF SEEING AND OWNING THEM ALL....ITS KIP...AND KIP FOREVER!! |

Speed, are you kidding me. When we had KIPs it would take sometimes an hour or longer to start printing. Th PageWide is finished way before the KIP even gets started. KIP is a piece of junk compared to the PageWide. KIP is forever breaking down. Always having drum or fuser issues and I can keep going. There is only 1 thing KIP does that I like, and that it is water resistant. And yes you do have to have a bunch of techs that are DEDICATED to it. Because they break down all the time. KIP is a big JOKE. We have had both the KIPs and PageWide and the PageWide runs a lot longer with no e=service then the KIP ever thought of. At least twice a month I had to work on the KIPs. I hardly ever work on our PageWide. And our PageWides have well over 5 million sq. ft. a piece. Very few calls and hardly any parts. So like I said KIP is a JOKE |

Makes a big difference who services your machines.
The argument which is better HP or KIP is the same as which is better Ford or Chevy. They both are good but only as good as the person who services them.
The KIP 870 and the 7170 are both strong reliable machines. They like all printers need to be serviced from time to time by people who know what they are doing. Is it possible you just didn’t have a good service company? |

We ran Kip 8000's and 9900's in our shop. Serviced other customers 3000's 5000's 7100's, 7900's, 7170's, 7970's. The 71xx series were not as bad. Was KIP certified on the mono machines. Trained on HP DesignJets and now certified HP trained PageWide. We run the PageWide 8000"s here, but service them all. From what I have seen so far is, that the PageWide uses more ink and less parts then the KIP. You run 50 prints on an KIP and the quality drops off. You run 200 on a PageWide and the 1st one looks as good as the last one. Now graphics suck on a PageWide I will say. But that is not the customers we sell it to. Times have changed a lot since the Xerox 2510 days. And sooooo glad blueline machines are dead. Don't miss them at all. |

By the way Chevy. I have a Chevy truck that has 280,000 miles with only very minor work done to it. At 270,000 I finally replaced the alt. Mostly tires, brakes and oil changes. Belt every 130,000 miles. It has done better then any Ford I every owned, for that matter any Chevy that I owned too. |
