Hi,


An image setter is a high resolution output device that can transfer electronic text and graphics directly to film, plates, or photo-sensitive paper. It can be thought of as a very expensive high resolution printer and can come in many different sizes and formats. An imagesetter uses a laser and a dedicated raster image processor ( RIP ) and is usually PostScript -compatible to create the film used in computer-based reproduction work. Unlike the resolution on a home printer, which is probably between 300 - 600 dots per inch ( dpi ), the resolution on a typical image setter is 1270 or 2540 dpi with a maximum dpi of 4000. In process color work, an imagesetter creates the separated output by "printing" the image four times - once each in cyan, magenta, yellow and black ( CMYK ).

@ Ade: The 8000/8200 machine was/is unanimously considered to be over-engineered, it's a pain to keep it in good working order, telling you this from experience. Spare parts are very hard to find especially the PCBs. Crosfield service engineers are now either freelancers or Fujifilm. Do you intend to purchase an 8200 ? Beware of the obsolete, slow level 2 postscript sun sparc rip.
