i've been reading some of the 8000 topics and several of them mention voltage spikes and ground noise. i have 5 8000's in my building and just lately (in the past 2-3 months) ive seen about 3 or 4 of them invert images out of the blue. by invert, i mean the white is now black and b lack is now white. ive even seen it do it on the trim sheet. sometimes when the papers changed and sometimes while its printing. ive only seen this about 5 times in the mentioned time period. if it does it while printing, itll only do it on about 2 or 3 pages then go back to normal. kip suggests i try this Digtal QC power filter (general bulletin 38b). has anyone out there seen this issue or know whats causing it? is anyone out there currently using this power filter ? has it made any noticeable changes? im trying to get another opinion before i spend the money ($220/each) on these things.

thanks

These things do work. especially if you are in an area that has "dirty power". Think about it this way, what can you replace on the KIP for $220? Not much. The DC controller board lists for $1800. Cheap insurance.

Many of these manufactures will offer circuit board insurance and will pay for any circuit board that fails up to $20,000. I have a requirement that all contract machines are on one just for that reason.
