I did a search and found the AGFA printers mentioned, but does anyone here run one? If so, how do you like it?

We had our Anapurna Mv installed the second week of December, which was immediately followed by one of our largest jobs of the year, which carried us into mid January. Generally speaking, the AGFA has performed well, we have printed Sintra, gatorfoam, foamcore, coro as well as some carpet vinyl and even some cardstock. It did print very well.
Like any new piece of equipment, it has a learning curve and some quirks to learn. I did have an issue with a heater in the unit, but AGFA service came through like champs. They returned my call within about 10 minutes and within three hours I had a tech on site, and we are pretty far away from most of the tech centers. There were several tech issues, but nothing that stopped us from producing, and nothing that was not fixed promptly.
I'll be glad to go into more detail and answer any questions you might have if you want to send me a private message.
Overall, I have to recommend the AGFA without reservation, I wish we could have had a few weeks to spend learning the machine before being pushed by deadlines, but we had no choice on that. I might have saved some media by having learned the details of the quirks before I printed a bunch of stuff.
Feel free to ask
