Computer-to-plate and Thermal Advancements

"In the infancy of CTP, no one had a proofing system that could back up the sheet—that's extremely important when you're building press forms," reports Kevin Ruttan, chief technology officer, who works closely with Ed Linsky, manager of CTP, to oversee the company's CTP effort.

The financial printing component of Daniels is about 60 percent of the printer's work—of that, 80 to 90 percent is CTP. Ruttan sees a tremendous future ahead for CTP at Daniels Printing, which, eventually, may include thermal technologies.
