If you are on a boat on a fast moving river, having an engine would be

critical to navigate your way around obstacles.  In addition, having an engine allows to you to get to your desired destination. For a CTP device, the thermal head is like the engine, keeping your plate making operation going, straight, steady and fast enough to get print jobs out the door quickly.

One key development on Kodak CTPs is the launch of the new Thermal

Head 7 (TH7).  This is our newest head type used in W-speed MAGNUS Q800, MAGNUS VLF, TRENDSETTER Q400 and TRENDSETTER Q800 Platesetters.  Having TH7 allows us to retire the older Thermal Head 3 (TH3), which are used on Z-speed MAGNUS Q800 and MAGNUS VLF Platesetters.  So think of this as an engine transplant on the CTP machine: out with the old and in with the new.

Now that TH7 is available, Kodak will discontinue production of TH3.  For

existing TH3 customers, rest assured that Kodak service has this planned out to ensure a smooth transition and will replace a TH3 with TH7 should that be necessary
