Violet Photopolymer Plate For Newspapers Launched
Fujifilm Graphic Systems has launched its new CTP plate for the newspaper market - Brillia LP-NNV.
Offset Supplies was instrumental in putting together the right package to meet Prism's requirements.
Stephen Sayer, business development manager at Prism Graphic Resources, commented: "Fujifilm's photopolymer violet CTP is a lot more environmentally friendly and cleaner than silver CTP and provided us with the most productive and economical solution.
It produces high quality results and fulfils our need for B1 and B2 plates.
We were already using Fuji's plates and so were already aware of the outstanding service and support - but this was even more of an issue moving to a single supplier." Prism Graphic Resources is using a complete Fuji Open Workflow system and is particularly impressed with its trapping and ROOM (RIP once, output many) features.
Prism Graphics has noticed an improvement in data integrity of documents and is using the workflow to drive its existing digital Epson proofing devices and its digital press.
It has also been using Fuji Open Workflow to output CIP3 files to its five-colour B1 and six-colour B2 litho presses.
Sayer continued: "Fuji Open Workflow was our first choice of workflow because of its open nature and compatibility with other devices.
Using Fuji Open Workflow we can now output to a variety of engines.
The system is very robust, user friendly and versatile.
Fujifilm has been very professional and supportive throughout the whole sales and installation process.
The company conducted a site survey and showed us how our existing equipment would be incorporated in to the new CTP package." Since installing the new system, Prism Graphics has had some excellent feedback from clients, including comments on improved proofing, clarity of images and an overall better quality of print.
Prism Graphics specialises in commercial colour printing and produces a range of direct mail and marketing literature for large charities, blue chip financial organisations and advertising agencies.
