Going CTP is as easy as printing a file. The system utilizes a high resolution plate marking fluid to image the plate. The plate is printed, then baked, and can go straight to press. This patent pending coating and aluminum substrate provides a dimensionally stable plate capable of high-resolution printing and long run lengths.
Using the Tango plate in an electronic pre-press workflow eliminates the need for a camera, imagesetter, plate-frame, processor and is a big improvement over polyester plate systems. Tango is the ultimate Computer-to-Plate solution for most offset printing applications.
