Presstek 34DI Colour Space: CMYK Printing Speed:
max. 7 000 sheets/h |

Technology |
Offset waterless printing (plates do not need dampening before
inking) in Direct Imaging technology. |
DI - direct imaging - the process of sending a digital file directly to
a press without the use of traditional offset or computer-to-plate processes or chemistry.
Plates are imaged directly on press in precise register. |
Printing Stock |
- offset and coated papers and boards -
self-adhesive papers - foil for digital waterless printing - plastics

Resolution & Screen Ruling |
Resolution 2540 dpi Screen Ruling 300 lpi - elliptical raster or
frequency-modulated (stochastic) screening |
|
Image |
By 300lpi screen ruling raster is almost imperceptible to the human eye.
|
By stochastic screening no raster occurs (dots are arranged in irregular clumps) -
graphics looks more like photos from photolab than traditional offset printing. |
Colours |
Program inking automatically supplies the
correct amount of ink to the ink rollers to match the image. |
|
Colour Repeatability |
Within one sheet certain typical for offset technology
slight differences in colour hue and saturation
can occur. |
|
Text Quality |
Quality of black and colour text
is perfect for types not smaller than 4 points. |
If you set text as a bitmap, its quality gets worse. |
Colour Registering |
Zero Transfer Printing (ZTP) process — all four colors are laid down
onto the sheet without any sheet transfer between grippers. It ensures very good colour
registration even with less saturated colours.
However as large sheets can stretch very little during printing it may result in
slight colour misregistering
in further parts of the sheet (further from grippers). In such case
lot of depends on the paper quality and grammage. |
|
Front- & Backside Registering |
Shift should not exceed 0,5 mm.
As Presstek 34DI does not allow for setting sheet parameters
artwork has to be well prepared
(face- and backside of the page have to be positioned identically towards the sheet).
| |
Finishing |
Print on coated papers can be laminated, UV coated, glued
(glued areas should not be covered with ink) and tinned. |
