Why Buy an Imagesetter?

The Dolev 800V imagesetter connects to a high-productivity hub. This hub works as an automated production line, driving the imagesetter, contract proofing device, digital blueline proofer—all the while RIPing, trapping and imposing. This hub represents a radical change in prepress production.

"Scitex has a unique program in place. Because our workflow is open and well-integrated into any configuration, printers can start with Brisque, get the feel for output potential, automation and added capacities and then, after they get the feel for a digital workflow, decide if their next step is an investment in a platesetter or digital press," Najmr explains. He notes that an imagesetter prepares an entire enterprise for digital data handling, making the eventual switch to a traditional or even thermal platesetter little more than a simple box installation.
