Riteportal SE is Screen’s internet portal that is allows companies to prepare and deliver error-free, production-ready certified PDF files from any application to the printer.
Screen says Riteportal SE is able to be tailored to a printer’s production workflow, and it simplifies the PDF creation, pre-flight, certification, encryption and delivery of pre-defined PDF files in to a ’click-and-print’ process from the desktop for on-line and off-line delivery.
Screen adds that the system eliminates the problems often associated with bad PDFs, such as incorrect profile settings and missing fonts.
Certified PDFs created by customers are uploaded to the print site’s Riteportal SE server and automatically placed in to pre-determined hot folders, or print queues.
As a result, print jobs get on press with fewer delays and quality results are guaranteed, added the company.
Riteportal SE complies with JDF and PDF/X-1a open standards to ensure flexibility and scalability and integrates with Trueflow.
Brian Filler, managing director of Screen UK, says the Truepress 344 is attracting considerable interest from companies that already own variable data digital presses and want to add profitable short-run litho quality print to their range of services.
“We believe it is an ideal choice for the B1 and B2 quality printer who needs the flexibility to produce smaller format, economical print runs, with a quality that is comparable to their existing offset presses.”
The Truepress 344 is designed as a production machine for commercial print requirements. With a maximum printing speed of 7,000 A3+ sheets per hour, the four-colour press produces a 500 sheet single-sided job from start to finish in less than 15 minutes.
A make-ready time of five minutes is achieved by using a combination of the high-speed 830nm MALD (multi array laser diode) imaging with a new process-less plate technology from Konica Minolta, Screen says.
