CTP FIELD REPORTS -- Set to Compete

The company put the digital plate through some tests and was impressed with the results, Fecondo recalls. KPG then worked in concert with a dealer to put together a platesetter and plate package for the shop, he adds.

Screen (USA) has positioned the platesetter as a six-page machine, but Fecondo says he sees it as a four-up machine that perfectly fits the plant's 29˝ press format. The bulk of the shop's work is run on a lineup of half-size Heidelberg presses, including a seven-color Speedmaster 72, six-color Speedmaster 74 and a two-color Quickmaster.
