ROCHESTER—Custom trade printer Ry-Gan Printing replaced a Heidelberg Prosetter violet platesetter with a thermal Suprasetter 75 CTP system with automatic plate loading. The upgrade allows the company to use less chemistry and fewer consumables to produce 500 to 600 plates per month.

Mercury Print Productions, a commercial printer, has purchased an HP Scitex FB6100 wide-format ink-jet printer to add capacity to its new large-format printing operation.
