Kodak Polychrome Graphics Japan has signed a deal to sell Pressteks Anthem processless thermal plate and Dimension platesetter.
KPG has been developing its own processless thermal plate, codenamed "Navajo", since before Ipex 98.
It denied the deal was due to problems with its own plate, which is currently in beta testing. It gave no dates for commercial availability.
