The PlateMaker 5 XL is a total prepress system which images 16-up polyester plates and paper proofs up to 914 mm x 1219 mm (36″ x 48″). Powered by Xanté OpenRIP Symphony 3.0, the all-in-one PDF workflow preserves file content and automates prepress tasks such as trapping and imposition.

The PlateMaker 5 XL will be the next addition to the PlateMaker 5 CTP series. Xanté assures clients the toner-based polyester platemaking solution is environmentally friendly and requires no plate-processing chemicals.

Polyester plates up to 914 mm x 1219 mm (36″ x 48″) can be imaged in about one minute and placed directly on the printing press, without any further processing. The Platemaker 5 XL is designed for single colour and spot colour work. Plus, 16-up large-format capability makes it an affordable solution for the newspaper and book publishing industry.
