Avoid the "End of Life" Trap

 

 

 

 

Promotional Pricing for 9800 End-Of-Life Alternatives
Save $5000 - $8500 with purchase on or before December 23, 2008

In the coming months, many of us will be financially and operationally affected by Océ's decision to "end-of-life" (EOL) the 9800 printer and scanner. Manufacturers in all industries periodically EOL various products for a variety of reasons, including:

  • Technological obsolescence
  • High cost of service/warranty
  • Decreasing profitability in comparison to other offerings
  • Competitive landscape.

Fortunately, in our open and competitive market, those of us affected by the 9800 EOL event have several choices. One of the most attractive options, particularly in the current economic climate, is to keep what you can or replace what you must. Or better yet -- do both!


Keep Your 9800 Scanner - Only $4995 (Save 57%)

While the 9800 print engine may be near the end of its useful life, the scanner probably has many years remaining. Aside from the occasional bulb change, what else is required? Why replace what is arguably the most productive scanner in use today? PLP's 9800 Stand Alone Scanner Kit allows you to permanently detach the scanner from the printer and operate it independently.

Use the 9800 scanner:

  • With printers other than the 9800 (KIP 9000, Xerox 6279, Océ TDS800)
  • As a stand-alone scan station
  • To generate more revenue by using it for scan-to-archive projects.

The promotional price of $4995 includes:

  • PlotWorks License
  • Scan to TIFF and PDF
  • 9800 Scanner Retrofit Kit (Power Supply and Cables)
  • PC (Dell OptiPlex 755, Quad Core, 4GB RAM, 19" Wide Screen FPD)
  • WebEx Training
  • 9800 Scanner not included

Replace the 9800 Printer with a KIP 9000 - Save $5054 (37%)

We must replace our 9800 printers due to the end-of-life event, but why choose another 400dpi device like the TDS800? Increasingly, AEC firms achieve higher quality when printing in-house because they have already upgraded to 600dpi printers like the KIP 3000/5000/7000, Xerox 6050/6204/6279 or the Océ TDS700. Why invest in old technology when your customers demand new?

The shift to the KIP 9000 offers many benefits including improved print quality, increased print speed, and lower operating costs. At 600dpi and a rated print speed of 22 D‑size sheets per minute, the KIP 9000 provides the print quality and performance your customers expect in today's fiercely competitive market. Additionally, lower maintenance and toner costs will reduce your operating expenses and improve your return on assets.

PLP's PlotWorks provides the optimal software solution for the KIP 9000 allowing you to:

  • Improve your workflow by eliminating production bottlenecks and increasing efficiency
  • Reduce turnaround times and improve customer service with powerful queue management
  • Lower your labor and waste costs by reducing reprints and increasing utilization.

The promotional price of $8606 includes:

  • PlotWorks License
  • File Processing Bundle (DWF, PDF, PLT, TIFF, VIC/JOB, CALS, PostScript)
  • KIP 9000 Printer Interface
  • WebEx Training
  • PC not included

If you're inclined to replace the 9800 printer with the KIP 9000, it's a no-brainer to keep the 9800 scanner for only $1995 more. Combine the benefits of both promotional packages for the promotional price of $10,601.

This package includes:

  • PlotWorks License
  • File Processing Bundle (supports DWF, PDF, PLT, TIFF, VIC/JOB, CALS, PostScript)
  • KIP 9000 Printer Interface
  • Scan to TIFF and PDF
  • 9800 Scanner Retrofit Kit (Power Supply and Cables)
