Prepress Department consists of a brand new Luxel T-9000 II plate
setter hooked up to an online automatic processor and driven by the
latest Rampage Workflow System.
An Epson 10600 proofing devise with full color management software
allows us to reproduce on a special high-grade satin paper an array
of vivid colors near 95% close to press results.
