Process Optimization — Makereadies Mean Money

By making plates ahead of time and staging them, Fuld says his company's evaluation of the Ani-color technology found that it will be able to cut its on-press makeready process from the current 18 minutes and 100 or 200 wasted sheets to get good color, down to seven minutes and sellable color within the first 15 sheets. The new press will also give 4CP greater format flexibility, he adds.
