It can now handle up to 16-point stock, reportedly a thicker stock than any other direct imaging press can handle. A new Smart Spooling Mechanism automatically detects how much plate material has been used and then only spools ahead the used plate material, allowing users to almost double the amount of jobs they can get from a roll of plate material.
