Newspaper printers in Georgia, Oregon, Louisiana, and Ohio are the latest to purchase KODAK thermal CTP solutions to improve output quality and enhance operating efficiencies. Athens Newspapers LLC of Athens, Ga., which prints the Athens Banner-Herald , a number of weeklies, the daily student newspaper at the University of Georgia and a large number of commercial projects, purchased two KODAK TRENDSETTER NEWS 70 thermal platesetters, KODAK thermal digital plates, a KODAK PRINERGY Evo workflow system, KODAK PREPS imposition software and KODAK STACCATO screening. Athens Newspapers is part of Morris Communications Co.

“We started looking at the platesetter units a while ago. With Kodak able to offer the total package of equipment, consumables and workflow, it was very attractive to our company,” said Gary Cleveland, Production Director at Athens Newspapers. “We had limited space for our new equipment and Kodak showed us how we could make it all work in the space we had available.”

At Courier Publishing Co. of Grants Pass, Ore., they are adding two TRENDSETTER NEWS 70 platesetters. Courier Publishing, a PAGE Co-op member, prints the Grants Pass Daily Courier, a total market coverage weekly and commercial jobs.
