Virtuoso Print Quality System Product From Presstek, Inc.: Presstek's (Booth 3117) Virtuoso is an inline print quality system for the Presstek 75DI digital offset press. Virtuoso performs a complete inspection of each sheet in real time preventing inadvertent delivery of defective sheets to the customer. Advanced reporting and data collection supports process improvement. The result is reduced operating cost and a more stable print run.

PearlDry Blue Waterless Thermal Printing Plates Product From Presstek, Inc.: PearlDry Blue from Presstek (Booth 3117) is a next-generation waterless thermal printing plate. PearlDry Blue extends the benefits of previous generations of Presstek’s waterless plate technology by offering superior on-press performance and enhanced imaging characteristics.

Presstek 75DI Enhancements Product From Presstek, Inc.

Presstek (Booth 3117) is showcasing its automatic perfecting and UV curing options for its 75DI digital offset press. Details of these two options include:

Automatic Convertible Perfecting. A perfecting device on the 75DI can be automatically converted between normal printing and perfecting. Up to 10 towers can be included in the perfecting configuration. Perfecting is possible at up to 15,000 sheets per hour, making the 75DI one of the fastest perfecting presses in the industry.

PhD 830 Thermal Pre-Heat Digital Plate Product From Presstek, Inc.: Presstek's (Booth 3117) PhD 830 is a negative working pre-heat thermal plate that requires less chemistry and has a wider pre-heat latitude than competitive plate products. This ablation-free plate is designed to use less laser power and to run at the fastest possible imaging speeds. PhD 830 plates support screen resolutions of 1 to 99 percent at 300 lpi and are FM screening certified. In the pressroom, the plate is highly resistant to pressroom chemicals and on-press abrasion. Run lengths up to 250,000 are supported without baking and a million plus with an optional post-bake. Presstek PhD 830 plates are imaged by 830 nm platesetters and offer a viable alternative for mid- to large-sized print operations seeking an alternative to conventional plate sources.

Presstek PearlDry-AL Thermal Plates Product From Presstek, Inc.: Presstek (Booth 3200) is spotlighting its PearlDry-AL plates for waterless offset printing, enabling printers to fully realize the superior image reproduction and efficiency of waterless printing and CTP plate production. Chemistry-free PearlDry-AL plates utilize a daylight-safe thermal laser imaging process. No preheating, chemical processing, gumming or baking is required, simply clean with water and the plates are ready to print. PearlDry-AL plates support screen resolutions of 1-99% at 200 lpi and offer fast ink roll-up and makeready, reducing paper waste. Runs to 100,000 (coated paper) and 50,000 (uncoated paper) are easily supported. Featuring a spectral sensitivity of 800–1200nm, a wide range of CTP devices are supported, including Presstek’s Compass and Dimension Pro series. The plates deliver high quality environmentally-friendly printing at lower costs. Uptime is further enhanced by Presstek’s strategically located network of CTP Specialists and field engineers.

Presstek Aurora EXP Plate Product From Presstek, Inc.: Presstek (Booth 3200) is highlighting Aurora EXP, which combines the performance of grained anodized aluminum plates with the benefits of chemistry-free imaging for superior prepress and pressroom performance. Once imaged, the Aurora EXP plate requires only a simple water wash, and it is ready to print. No developing, baking or gumming is required. Aurora EXP reduces the total cost of CTP operation by eliminating chemicals and the associated steps and variables in the plating process. It is rated up to 50,000 impressions and can be imaged at a resolution of 1% to 99% at 200 lpi. Aurora EXP has a strong resistance to UV inks and solvents and can be used in both UV and conventional printing without any sacrifice in productivity and quality. The non-proprietary plates are compatible with a range of thermal platesetters, including Presstek, Scitex, Heidelberg, and Kodak. Aurora EXP non-ablative plates are well-suited for operations using 2-, 4-, and 8-page formats that want a chemistry-free operation without sacrificing quality and productivity.

Presstek PhD 830 Thermal CTP Plates Product From Presstek, Inc.: Presstek (Booth 3200) is showcasing its PhD 830 plates, designed to be highly accurate and consistent and competitively priced. The ablation-free plates are designed to use less laser power and to run at the fastest possible imaging speeds, resulting in reduced operating cost. Presstek PhD 830 plates support screen resolutions of 1-99% at 300 lpi and are FM screening certified. Excellent water take-up on press combined with high resistance to pressroom chemicals and on press abrasion delivers the finest quality printing. Users can achieve run lengths of 250,000 and 1 million with a post-baked option. PhD 830nm plates can be imaged on a wide range of CTP devices including Presstek’s Compass and Dimension Pro series. Uptime is further enhanced by Presstek’s strategically located network of CTP Specialists and field engineers.
