In-plants Rave About Computer-to-plate

"It does a good job. We've had no trouble with it at all. The only thing we had to do was upgrade some software. The cost of one of those plates is only $1.67 apiece."

Robinson says the benefits center on time savings.

"It's amazing the amount of time you can save from stripping and plate making," he says. "We go straight from computer. The guy grabs a plate, mounts it and he's printing very quickly."
