Pro Digital Paper on Xerox 5000

[dipressforum]

Hi,

Has anybody use Pro Digital Paper (from Kelly) - 80lb or 100lb Gloss Text & Cover on Xerox Docucolor 5000 machines? We are currently using Futura but it is like 25% more expensive.

Thanks

Isn't Pro Digital made by the same people who make Pacesetter? We run
Pacesetter all the time through our 5000 and it works great. I've heard that
Pro Digital is just Pacesetter in a wrapper. That's what our Spicer's rep
says at least, so take it as you will.

We use the Spicers brand (it's the same paper as they are sister companies) and have about 12,000 pounds of it in the back waiting to go through our DC5000's.

Stay away from the 70# Text as it curls like a SOB but the other weights run fine. (Ironically better than the Xerox brand paper for us!)

we have used pro digital in our shop for the last few months. we were told it replaced Meteor here at our local shop.
it runs just fine. We only use the cover as the text is not bright enough for our clients. We still use futura 100# text as its 98 brightness compared to pro digital is only 91.
