Computer-to-plate and Thermal Advancements

"The thermal part of the CTP in use here has enabled us to eliminate processing and chemistry from the platemaking process, saving labor and reducing consumables. We have cut more than $100,000 in consumables from prepress this year by converting to CTP—that is by far no small number for a printer our size—plus the quality of image detail and contrast is better with thermal CTP as well as faster and more efficient."
