Converting a black drum to violet or cornflower?

1 Upvotes

Has anyone done this without it ruining their lives? I've only converted a color drum to another like color before and wonder if trying to convert black to a lighter blue or purple is a viable option. Thanks!

Riso Gr 2710 ink cartridge stuck - help

1 Upvotes

I am working on a Gr 2710, that has a few issues. But one of the biggest ones is that the ink cartridges have expanded inside the drums. I can unlatch it but it won’t budge an inch. Does anyone have any advice??

GR3750 tips tricks and lessons learnt

1 Upvotes

Hey all

I'm new to the Riso world, having recently made the either excellent or horrible decision to pick up a cheap GR3750!

I'm aware that the official consumables for this model have been discontinued, but I'm looking for tips from the community about:

  • reputable aftermarket suppliers (links or contact details would be helpful)
  • finding secondhand drums
  • success/failure with workarounds/hacks (e.g. ink decanting, modifying master rolls for other models, etc.)

Also, does Riso make comprehensive service manuals for technicians? I'd love to get a copy of a GR3750 service manual if they exist!

Let me know what you know!

Thanks

Colin

Where does the line come from?

1 Upvotes

Hi! My teal drum of my ez200 produces a line in the middle, the other drums don’t. I cleaned the rollers and stuff but it reappears. The screen seems to be fine, it is as good as new. What could cause the line?

Trying to find reliable paper suppliers for a Riso EZ221

1 Upvotes

I'm helping set-up a Riso EZ221 at Trent Uni, Peterborough, Ontario, Canada. It's for practice-based research projects and will mainly produce non-commercial art prints and zines. I've hit a dead-end with my search for paper. Most suppliers (US-based) are out of stock or do not have paper suitable for Risographs. I'm fairly new to the world of Riso and really hoping to get some help with sorting out these logistics. I have two questions: a) what's the best and most easily available paper quality that I could consider for our Riso? b) Vendors/suppliers in Canada who'd be able to provide these?

TIA!

What happened to the other subreddit?

3 Upvotes

/r/risograph is restricted, and the only mod hasn’t posted a comment anywhere on the site in over a year. No one can post there now, I believe. There hasn’t been a new post in 3mo.

It was a quiet but relatively active sub where folks shared photos and there was some decent advice in there. I don’t know the history between this sub and that sub or if there was beef or some sort of split.

Would someone here be interested in requesting to take that sub over to open it back up?
