Does anyone here run a Minolta C350 Copier?

Just curious to see if anyone owns/runs one of these.

We have one here in the UK. Its a quality machine and apart from the transfer belt, imaging units and toners, its got through 150,000 without needing anything else!

Its a good machine but the lack of MAC combatability is a bit annoying sometimes, but seeing as we use both platforms it works ok for us!

The DC12 by Xerox is a serious contender also and many graphic arts users prefer this but as a copy shop we use this for mainly colour and black and white copys but we also use it for film for plates and the likes as its image quality is brilliant!

Hope this helps.

It does, I have one here in the US and its rounding just about 650,000 total color and black and white copies. I was curious as to how your duplexing is, mine seems to be off by about an 1/8", causing me to have to manually move a page on our computer controlling the copier

Registration of the duplex is a bit useless as with the registration of the ADF but we live with it! There isnt that much you can do about that! I have the service manual as a PDF if that may help you?

My company has 14- C350"s. I advise s users not to use the top (1) drawer. We have over 20 copiers in our organization and the C350's give us the most problems. In my opinion they are a poor design. If you have the $$ get an 8050 or a C6500. If running Black only go with a Cannon - ( forgot what sevrvice tech looks like.. 75,000-125,000 copies a month NO PROBLEMS)
