purnomosetiawan 7 Report post Posted January 8, 2018 Anyone know about DE 100 ? I own Epson D700 which is same machine as Fujifilm DX100. Epson d700 have bad durability, for a year i change Printhead 3 times, 1 inkhouse, and 1 motherboard. So many negative review on this machine. Recently Fujifilm launch DE100, which is very different to DX100, 4 inks compare to 6 inks. Anyone know about it ? who made this printer ? Noritsu,Epson or Fuji themself?

vogelw 0 Report post Posted January 29, 2018 Hello! I am interested in the Epson d700 printer, but I find a lot of bad things about it. I have no experience, but in de100 the 4 colors are very few. Anyone know the Noritsu QSS Smart dr-08, dr-012 printer? Does it have anything to do with Epson? How much is it? etc. ... http://www.noritsu.eu/hardware/noritsu-qss-smart.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Minilab service 238 Report post Posted January 29, 2018 Not sure that these printers are for sell. They where released on 2016, but even official Noritsu subsidiaries didn't manage to run them. Then Noritsu wrote this press release : http://www.noritsu-precision.com/en/info/20161227-en/ No more updates after that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vogelw 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2018 123/5000 Hello! There is a 1 + 1 year warranty in Hungary. I have a small studio. About 10000-15000 prints per year ... I'm scared to buy it. The defective tool is too expensive (4300 usd). But the traditional lab is too big for me. And I do not trust the thermal print (Mitshubishi, Citizen, etc.) This is my problem...

purnomosetiawan 7 Report post Posted January 31, 2018 then dont buy it, use larg format printer like canon pro, here in Indonesia, Canon gives us Print Head warranty for LIFETIME as long you use OEM ink. i know that's not ideal for 4x6 size, but at the end we need to make profit doesnt we ? with Surelab d700 or DX100, what you'll find is one trouble to another. When i bought this printer , they promised me PH will last for 100k prints, but that is bullshit, my printhead failed after less than 10k prints 4x6. After PH replacement the printer was loosing it's detail, i dont think the replacement PH is the same as PH on new unit. after 13 months, mainboard was failed and it costs me twice than PH price, my ink house was failed before.

yustas 73 Report post Posted January 31, 2018 15 000 prints /year : 365 days = 40 prints per day. Are you sure that you need DX100 and are you sure that you will return your invested funds in it even in 5 years? I doubt. May be better to ask some local photofinishing labs who located near you to print your orders for you? Some kind of co operation. No headache, no expenses for paper, cartridges, spare parts etc. And with your volume of prints - the thermoprinters are the best choise. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vogelw 0 Report post Posted January 31, 2018 Hello! Our main profile is photography. I'm currently printing at a local lab, but there is big vulnerability. That's why I'm thinking about my own printer. Thanks for the advice! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MasterLaser 0 Report post Posted April 19, 2018 Epson SureLab D700 is, acording to our experience, good printer. Printhead is usually changed after 60-70.000 sheets on count which is roughly 100.000 10x15 prints. Problem with ink cartridge holder is on 1% of D700 as well as MB. Either you are not lucky, or you have bad power supply or you use non-genuine ink. We faced on DX100 very short PH life span when customers saves money with cheap ink.

Hansen 0 Report post Posted January 7, 2019 just my opinion d700 is not a bad printer in fact is a good one .... i own d700 and use it with original ink and paper for quite some times until it leak. yellow ink leak so i have to send it to service center and they tell me my d700 is out of warranty and need to change print head wtf it was a leakage. and i surely know it have nothing to do with the printhead..... but in the end i had to agree to change the perfectly fine print head cuz otherwise my printer travel for nothing Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yustas 73 Report post Posted January 7, 2019 So you have a right to ask to return your PH if you are sure in its good condition. Although they can return to you, but not yours. All depends on the honesty of the service center now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VLAB 1 Report post Posted March 8, 2019 at Purnomosetiawan: Pitty that it took them so long time to find out what went wrong finaly a new improved printhead for SLD700 and DX100 is announced (will be soon available for servicecenters). Improved inkholders were previously also already released...I guess bad luck for you. I've seen many machines that did the 100k prints whithout facing clogged nozzles nor ink leakage. On the other hand I've seen situations like yours also and everything used by owner was OEM Fujifillm. If you have the opportunity to remove rear cover from a DE100 you will see "RICOH" on main board... at nick1: What you are looking for is called MSP80 there's one for MS4.2 Win7 and another for MS10 running on Win10 systems. It is burned on a DVD with a copy protection. Fujifilm subsidairies are selling those…. In which country are you Nick1? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, almost all parts are replaceable. These printers are almost the same. Difference only software, driver, maintenance utility, cover color and cartridges with ink. It is easy to make Epson from Fuji and Fuji from Epson ( have use other software, driver, maintenance utility, upgrade printer firmware, use other maker cartridges ) .

mortu140 0 Report post Posted March 25, 2019 (edited) Fuji dx100 is 99% the same with D700. Noritsu dr08 should be the same with dx100/d700. All 3 are developed by Epson. Noritsu dr12 is based on an Epson printer ( i hope not based on epson D3000 which is a nightmare to service). DR08/12 are just a test. Noritsu marketing/sales team had a simple choice: keep the green series ( epson print head rated at about 1000000 prints ) or release dr08/12. Probably green series would sell very bad if a dr08 at about 3000-5000 $/euro would hit the market. I dont know why Noritsu does not develop a low volume/speed QSS at a price of 15000-25000 $/euro. That would kill the d700/dx100 market for photolab use. Regarding d700: I now own 2 D700. One of them is 3.5 years old and has over 500000 prints. I changed everything on it (motherboard 3 times from my fault ) except cutter which lasted far better then the recomended 100000 print and is still working. I changed about 5 print heads and 2 paper drawers. I used only epson inks and i print all of my clients print on it. Paper is not that important from my tests but epson ink is a must. For me D700 has been a God send replacement for QSS3001 ( i had 2 of them) . For D700 to be a good choice for you, you have to use it daily, give it epson ink and have a extremly good relation with you service partner. A bad think is epson order controller software. It's made by idiots. Probably just programmers without photo printing knowledge. It' also expensive if not in kit with D700. I forgot one small thing: quality of d700 print is enough for usual customer, far better then any thermal printer i tried but lower compared with QSS 3001 Edited March 25, 2019 by mortu140 MOre information Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vaclavus 0 Report post Posted April 7, 2019 (edited) I was at the Fuji conference in PL and watched the new DE100. Representatives claimed that this is a completely new Fuji construction with 4 inks and a smaller drop. Apparently he has to use less expensive ink. It also has to clean the head more economically.
