CSU Long Beach Goes Computer-to-plate

So recently, after a two-year search, the eight-employee in-plant did away with film altogether and installed a new Presstek Vector TX52 thermal computer-to-plate device running Freedom chemistry-free plates. Included in the package was a punch and an Epson Stylus Pro 4880 proofer.

“For a small shop like us, it is just a wonderful tool,” says Sternfeld. It takes just four minutes to make plates now, he says, and the quality is outstanding.
