Imagesetters Fill Important Niche

The ASU in-plant produces letterhead, envelopes and business cards, mostly one- and two-color. Although the shop prints some four-color work, most of that goes to the Heidelberg Quickmaster DI, operated in conjunction with the university's graphics program.

The imagesetter outputs to polyester plates for letterhead and business cards, while all envelope work (mostly #10s and some #9s) are run on a two-color Halm Jet press, which requires a metal plate.
