Imagesetters Fill Important Niche

'Our Imagesetter Has Proven Itself'

Down in San Antonio, Texas, Janet Pendleton, director of Printing Services at the University of Texas Health Science Center, oversees a similarly equipped digital/offset in-plant that relies on an older model imagesetter for its film. The six-year-old Agfa Avantra outputs the film that produces everything from manuals and handouts to brochures, magazines, newsletters and posters, both for the school and for student walk-in orders. Producing film up to 24˝, the device has been trouble-free for the 25-employee in-plant.
