    Default Large format printer & scanner - KIP vs Oce'

    We are looking to replace our KIP6000 with either:

    KIP7900 w/ 2300 Scanner

    OR

    Oce' TDS750 w/ TC4 scanner.

    I've read thru more literature than imaginable - would like some feedback from users - anyone able to help?

    We just installed a 750 and the 450 last Friday. I'll have to let you know how they are liked, but I can tell you a friend who works for another large firm, said we're lucky we didn't buy another Kip. I had been looking at them, but eventually got a better deal from Oce. he hates his, says it breaks down a lot.

    The Oce B/W printers such as the 800 and 700 series are pretty bulletproof IMO. We are on our third 800 series (multiples due to lease expiration only), and they pretty much do nothing but print. The first two had over 6 million sq. ft. printed on them, and we are approaching 1.5 million sq. ft. on the current one.

    We have a 700 also that is not currently in use. Never had any major problems with it while in use.

    We have a couple of the TC4 scanners. They seem to work fine with no issues to speak of. Having said that, I don't really have anything to compare them to, as far as standalone scanners go since these are the only ones we've had.

    Stay away from the Oce TCS (color inkjet) series printers though, we've had nothing but problems with all of these that we've had.
