New Speedmaster CX 102 seven-color for recently acquired company S&C Labels
Driven by its commitment to top-notch customer service, technological innovation and print quality, J.S. McCarthy Printers relies on KODAK Unified Workflow Solutions to drive results in all three areas. Using a combination of workflow, proofing and CTP solutions from Kodak, the Maine-based printer has increased efficiency, delivered superior print quality and strengthened client relationships.
Presstek, Inc., a leading supplier of digital offset printing solutions to the printing and communications industries, today announced that John Meyer has been promoted to Vice President Marketing, reporting directly to Chairman, President & CEO Stan Freimuth. Meyer joined Presstek in March of 2010 and has held director-level roles in Presstek’s CTP business. Prior to joining Presstek, Meyer served in a number of sales and marketing roles at Fujifilm USA.
Following its acquisition of S&C Labels in Huddersfield earlier this year, Print-Leeds is investing close to £3m in a new press and CtP system from Heidelberg. This move comes ahead of the centralisation of operations in Leeds where a building programme is increasing capacity from 10,000 sq ft to 19,000 sq ft. The press arrives at the end of November and the business transfer will take place over the Christmas break.
Reliant Colour is replacing a 12 year old Trendsetter with a Suprasetter A75 CtP device with AutoLoader. The company short-listed two contenders but Heidelberg’s Suprasetter thermal system won the day.
While many newspaper printers have only recently started to take advantage of the benefits of thermal CTP technology, St. Galler Tagblatt AG, a company that forms part of the Swiss media group NZZ, can look back on more than ten successful years of working with Kodak’s thermal CTP and plate technologies. At the print centre in St. Gallen’s Winkeln district, the company uses two KODAK GENERATION NEWS Platesetters to image the approximately 320,000 print plates that are used every year for print operations on a six-tower WIFAG press equipped with two folding units. Since March 2012, the company has been using only the new KODAK THERMALNEWS PT Plate.
