Here are some tips and a step-by-step video on how to properly pack a Rimage Everest thermal printer for shipping.

The highlights are:
• Power down the printer for 30-45 minutes
• Remove the ribbons from the printer
• Move the shipping screw into the “shipping” position
• Insert the internal printer packing materials
• Use the original box and packing foam
• Insure the package for replacement value ($1500-$5000 depending on the model)

We will be posting a similar video for cleaning and properly packing an inkjet CD printer shortly. We will also post a video on how to pack up a Rimage Prism / PrismPlus printer as well.

Please contact us with any of your inkjet or thermal disc printer or printing needs – supplies, repair, rental, new and used duplicator / printer sales, etc.

Rimage Everest 600 Printer Face Lift?

It looks like Rimage gave the Everest 600 printer a new paint job (see picture). It appears this is strictly a cosmetic change given that all of the major specifications are exactly the same.

  • Same 60 second print time
  • Same 600dpi print quality
  • Same print modes – photo and graphics
  • Same dimensions and weight – 45lbs – 9.7”x9.5”x23.8”
  • Same USB 2.0 interface and Power requirements – 100 – 120V, 500W or 220 – 240V
  • Same operating and humidity requirements 59 – 86 degrees, 30%-80% non-condensing

The Everest 600 printer has been a real workhouse printer since it was introduced in late 2008. The Rimage E600 is still our top choice for brilliant, eye-catching, thermal on-disc color printing.

The best recommendation I can give is that this Rimage system is our color thermal CD/DVD/Blu-ray printer of choice in our disc production room here at Techware Disc Duplication, Inc. What more can you say? We use what we sell.

I like the “new look” Everest 600, but I like the overall ease of operation, reliability and high-quality print output even more. Same old E600 printer which is a good thing.

Rimage started shipping the new CMY II Ribbon a few months back. The new part number is 2002161 and it replaces the former ribbon part number 2001480 for Everest 400 and Everest 600 printers. The new CMY 2 ribbon is designed to offer broader media compatibility and better optimization for printed colors (mainly better blue and purple color fills).

There are new firmware updates for both the Everest 600 and Everest 400. If your printer is on a Producer (6100n, 7100n, 8100n, 5300n, or 5100n) or Professional system (5400n, 5410n, 3400 & 3410 models). You will also need to install Rimage Producer Software version 8.2 – 8.5 Service Pack 2. This updates color settings for the new CMY II ribbons.

Call Techware (1-800-295-0083 x-13) if you have any questions or need any assistance with your Rimage printer(s) or disc publisher(s).
