Not too bad. I now see why we got such a smoking great deal on this Image Press 600, though. It has some kind of weird plug and needs 208 VAC instead of the traditional 240, so the transformer we got won't work with it; The electrician is having all sorts of problems. I think it was originally manufactured for a former Soviet bloc country that no longer exists.

Well, it didn't take very long for this thread to spring into being, now, did it...?   :tongue:

We have a general rage thread, I think. Just rage about everything, it really helps with depression.

We had a similar electrical issue when a copier digital press came in last year...pressman spent the weekend rewiring the power and it turned out to be wrong once the machine came in.  :laugh:

I never rage about that, I'm just real curious how that makes it through seemingly intact yet other plant matter does not.

I love when something new is coming in and the boss, after warnings not to, goes ahead and plumbs something in or runs wire without checking with anyone. He does it to "save time" yet not once has it been correct and always, always has to be redone. So now you saved no time, wasted money on material we can't use and wasted your time when you should be out selling, billing or writing up job tickets.

I'd rather have stories told than be telling stories of what I could have done.

I did research on that...
it actually does go through, but not "untouched".
What you see is actually an empty corn kernel, the interior has been digested, just not the outer kernel.

Just FYI...

You don't see me saying "Fuck Canon," (yet).

the only issue we had was that Ray Morgan wanted 5' of clearance behind the machine for maintenance access.  the fucking thing sits awkwardly out in the middle of the room, and they have NEVER accessed anything behind it in the years weve had it..
