In short... we love it!

Good luck!
Fatboysmart,

Thanks for the post on the Suprasetter.

With the Saphira Chemfree plate, we can image 11 SM 52 plates per hour.

On Thermal Direct, how much time between imaging and printing do you typically have? How do you store the imaged plates until they are ready to print? Thanks again for the post.


adexec,

No problem driving the Suprasetter from Delta with a 1-bit tiff, alls we need is a MetaShooter. This will catch the 1-bit tiffs from Delta via hot folders to image on the Suprasetter. The MetaShooter also will provide the GUI for the Suprasetter. Its quite a simple interface and allows you to see what the status is of imaging and as Fatboysmart stated, allows for very easy plate remakes. It also provides status such as when you need to empty the punch chads, basic maintenance such as filter changes, etc. Our Service Department or Application Specialist can easily remote access it if needed.


Regards,

Mark
