PageSet is one of Australia’s biggest prepress studios and over the years has also been commissioned by numerous print shops to run their prepress departments. PageSet operates in 12 sites throughout Australia. This is the first Suprasetter for the long-standing Heidelberg customer and replaces the first of nine Trendsetter units currently being used by the company.

Heidelberg says at the start of 2008, it added a whole raft of technical innovations and extensions to the Suprasetter series. This was followed at drupa 2008 by the presentation of the latest Suprasetter models for the format classes 190, 162 and 145, augmenting the equally new presses for the very large format, the Speedmaster XL 162 and XL 145.

A company statement says, “Both the new Speedmaster presses and the new Suprasetter units for the 100×140 cm and 120×162 cm format classes have already received the prestigious red dot design award. To date, Heidelberg has sold more than 6,500 computer-to-plate units throughout the world.”
