Summary

The openness, digitization and networking of graphic processing systems have become the basic features of today's electronic prepress systems. The CTP (Computer-to-plate computer-to-plate) wave has set off in the global printing industry.

Direct platemaking technology is a platemaking technology that transfers digital or pages edited in an electronic prepress system (CEPS) or a color desktop system (DTP) directly to a plate.

* In terms of materials, photographic film and its processing chemicals are eliminated;

* In the aspect of craftsmanship, film exposing and rinsing, revision and printing, etc. are omitted;

* In terms of equipment, the darkroom and film exposure equipment are eliminated;

* In terms of efficiency, it reduces costs and saves time and space;

* In terms of quality, the quality of image transfer has been significantly improved, reducing environmental pollution.

The CTP system adopts a new concept of physical imaging technology to completely get rid of laser generation and the use of photosensitive materials. It uses ink jet equipment to directly print out the required graphic parts on film, paper, and PS layouts, reducing the number of image transfer times. 100% transfer, no content loss, direct output large format, no imposition, revision.

The CTP system not only has the functions of direct plate making and direct proofing, but also has some features of direct inkjet printing. Its standard components are:

CTP plate-making machine (EPSON PRO 9000) + special printing software + special consumables

It takes Epson styls pro

9000 color inkjet plotter is an output device, supplemented by special printing software and special consumables to form a CTP system, which realizes the added value of the output device to meet the special requirements of the printing industry.

Acceptable special film, special PS plate and plain paper to complete the format output (split version + BO1118mm). Its performance characteristics are as follows:

(1) 6 picoliter drop control technology:

(2) Intelligent drop conversion technology:

(3) Micro Piezo Technology

(4) 6-color quick-drying ink:

Chinese interface, suitable for Windows95/98/NT, Mac platform, support network capabilities, and PostScript

Levedll is fully compatible, and is compatible with Peking University Founder typesetting system, can be directly issued in Apple and the PC on a variety of software production layout, such as PageMaker, FreeHand, Quarkpress, Illustrator, CorelDraw, Word, and Founder Feiteng and Wins.

The printing software has a good and feasible data interface, simple operation, high quality screening (up to 175 lines), powerful and comprehensive, fast interpretation and task queues, imposition, preview and other functions. When large-format output is available, the film width and layout width can also be automatically calculated, output in the most provincial way, and the small version can be automatically converted into large-scale output, and the imposition layout can also be manually controlled.

Dedicated CTP film and PS plate are coated with special treatment.
