Sheetfed Presses--Getting Connected

Another manufacturer looking to improve the connection between prepress and the pressroom is industry powerhouse Heidelberg USA. According to Cai von Rumohr, Speedmaster 52 product manager, that connection is being made with the new generation of CP2000 presses. CIP3 information can be sent with the help of the CPC32 prepress interface, which gives information on ink key profiles directly to the CP2000 presses, thus, makeready time can be reduced.
