Marcel Kiessling, member of the management board, responsible for Heidelberg Services, says, “The Suprasetter series is the leading CTP system in the industry thanks not least to the laser technology developed in-house by Heidelberg. Its market success proves that Heidelberg is able to use this top-of-the-range technology to meet the highest customer requirements worldwide.”

Patrick De Jaegere, operations manager at Smurfit Kappa, says, “We opted for the Suprasetter, because Heidelberg offers a mix of state-of-the-art solutions and high-quality service that we believe is unrivalled in the print media industry.”

Heidelberg says it has installed more than 10,000 CTP devices worldwide including the Suprasetters predecessors: the Trendsetter, Prosetter, and Topsetter. The company introduced the Suprasetter series to the public at drupa 2004, with the Suprasetter 75 and 105 models for the medium and large formats, which offered modular design and the potential for automation. It unveiled the entry-level Suprasetter A52 and A75 models  in 2006 and at drupa 2008, Heidelberg introduced the Suprasetter 145, 162, and 190 models for large format.
