Sun Media Corporation has ordered 15 UV-Setters from Basysprint GmbH, the manufacturer of platesetters for conventional printing plates.

The UV-Setters will be installed at various Sun community newspaper sites across Canada.

The decision to purchase Basysprint UV-Setters was based on the availability of plate materials as well as ease of integration into the existing Sun infrastructure.

"This is a strong signal to other companies considering investment in CTP technology," said Friedrich Lullau, the president of Basysprint.

Sun Media is the second largest newspaper group in Canada with eight Metro dailies, eight community dailies and 175 local weeklies and specialty publications.

They are located in five provinces - Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec.

"This will allow Sun Media to strengthen our community newspaper group with solid and reliable technology and we can continue to use our conventional plate supply that is well priced and readily available.

Basysprint offered the solution we needed for our community newspapers," commented Nolin Richard, vice president of corporate production, distribution and procurement at Sun Media.

Dave Taylor, president of Basysprint Canada added: "Our continued partnership with L and R Graphic Supply in sales, installations and service of the equipment was instrumental in the completion of this agreement.".
