Arkansas State’s CTP Exceeding Expectations

A year or so ago, Printing Services at Arkansas State University installed a Heidelberg ProSetter 74 computer-to-plate system. To find out how it has helped and what the shop has learned since then, we got in touch with Director David Maloch.

IPG: David, how has the new gear improved your business?

Maloch: It’s all about speed. We have much greater speed in getting proofs ready and in getting plates to presses. We’ve eliminated film, masking sheets, and other materials, so we have faster makereadies on presses. The Heidelberg gives us easier duplications for four-up, six-up, eight-up, etc. work, and imposition of multipage jobs is a snap. The quality and accuracy of the plates has exceeded expectations.
