The Fong Dynasty

Printers will need platesetters to deliver jobs faster and increase production capacity. Turnaround times are being squeezed, and we found that platesetting plays an essential role in expediting work. When we installed our Komori press, we learned something else that was very intriguing. Some of our magazine customers require 20 sets of proofs. Most printers would naturally send the files to a digital proofer. We experimented and discovered that it's less expensive to create plates and print traditional press proofs directly to the Komori press. Assuming you have CMYK in the units, it takes less than an hour to mount plates and print the sheets. And our customers, of course, love receiving a press proof for approval.
