We were informed that ESKO will no longer offer a maintenance contract on our Barco Megasetter after December 31, 2016. We are a high-end screen printer who's business depends on the superior image quality this unit provides. In the past we kept an eye out for old units and used them for parts. With this new development it appears the cost of maintaining our Megasetter could get very expensive-especially if we are down for an extended period of time. Is anyone aware of a way to retrofit a platesetter to run film? If not, what solution are others migrating to. We've seen the direct to screen solutions and have been underwhelmed with the quality. What about LADF systems? Any input on this topic would be greatly appreciated. We knew this day would come, but it appears ESKO is forcing our timeline.
