Why Buy an Imagesetter?

Good news for the imagesetter!

"These days, most printers receive jobs in a variety of formats, from full digital files to camera-ready copy. Using film from imagesetters is a tried and trusted production technique, with a low capital investment," agrees Nick Haddon, director of marketing for printing products at Cymbolic Sciences. "It's still difficult for the average printer to completely eliminate film from its prepress department, so that's why we're providing for large-format film output on all of our CTP units. This enables a printer to have the flexibility of film for conventional production and CTP for those fully digital jobs."
