on the same trusted technology that printers have depended on
for over 14 years, the Trendsetter Platesetter has a small footprint
and a powerful thermal imaging head for maximum productivity
with Kodak Sonora XP Process Free Plates. The fast throughput,
reliability, and stable, high-quality thermal imaging of the
Trendsetter 400 Platesetter can help you exceed your customers’
expectations, efficiently and affordably. To succeed in today’s
changing market, you need products and technologies that can
adapt, and Kodak keeps investing in the Trendsetter Platesetter to
help you excel, now and in the future.

Lower your total cost of operations

Printers worldwide need to increase efficiency in order to
remain competitive. One of the best ways to maximize output
while lowering costs in prepress is through stable, reliable plate
making. Downtime, plate remakes, and poor imaging quality will
quickly wipe out any cost benefits from low-cost platesetters
or consumables. The Trendsetter 400 Platesetter gives you
the stability and reliability you need to optimize your prepress
operation and truly lower your total costs.

The Trendsetter 400 Platesetter supports a wide range of plate
sizes from 2-page up to 6-page formats, enabling you to avoid the
cost of an 8-page CTP device for a 6-page press.

Accurate and stable imaging

high-resolution printing. The Kodak Trendsetter 400 Quantum
Platesetter, combined with optional 10-micron Kodak Staccato
Screening and Kodak Digital Plates, delivers stunning photorealistic
results that you have to see to believe.

Increase your sustainability

With the Trendsetter 400 Platesetter, maximizing quality and
productivity can also help you minimize environmental impact.
The small footprint reduces shipping waste and costs, as well as
space requirements. Choosing Kodak Sonora XP Process Free
Plates will further reduce your environmental impact by completely
eliminating your plate processor and chemistry and reducing
maintenance costs and labor, without compromising on quality or
productivity.

is need to differentiate through the highest quality print.

presses.
