Abstract
In recent years, Computer-to-Plate (CtP) imaging systems have become quite common and a natural extension of the digital prepress workflow. While these systems offer tremendous advantages from a productivity perspective, they are not necessarily problem-free from an environmental perspective. This fact sheet reviews the common environmental compliance issues associated with CtP systems and options for addressing them.
