Japan's Graphic Arts Show Goes International

Ryobi showed a new Model 668 A2-format offset machine with extended and high-pile delivery. Using Presstek technology, Akiyama launched a book offset perfector based on the J-Press concept.

Waterless offset continues to enjoy albeit limited popularity. Toray has added new plates, and is also working on CTP in this area. Hamada has a Color 48 five-color waterless keyless machine.
