We also had to return our first DC240 for a new one after countless
unsuccessful attempts to fix it. The new DC240 is still a good deal
worse than the DC12. It is much more instable, more prone to break
down and there are /always/ strong color variations across the sheet.
The DC12 is, of course, an ancient machine. As for variations across
the sheet I like to print solid C, M, Y, K and combined CMYK 11x17
pages to check for consistency and these machines has always
outperformed the others I've tested. Naturally the consistency across
the page doesn't approach inkjet. It is all relative. But if one must
have laser Xerox has a far better track record for such things. Sorry
to hear of your problems with the DC240 but they do sound isolated and
counter to the norm.
I am not satisfied with the DC240 toner because of its bad color
constancy. When you sway a print near the window to examine it in
daylight and artificial light alternating, you sometimes believe to
see two entirely different pages.
I think you'll find the color *consistency* to be clearly better
relative to the other options and the color *constancy* to be the same
as the others (they are all bad from what I've seen). If color
constancy is what you are after one should avoid laser altogether thus
the reason lots of agencies have both laser and inkjet for quick and
final color proofing.
