Release date: = Sep 2001

• Engine modifications and debris option added to machines with 100 Label #6.
• Release Trendsetter News B1 to Beta

• All NEWS engines
• Debris option

A market need has been identified for a full 8 page format machine with Trendsetter 2637V imaging speed and plate handling features.

Debris option not configured.

• Offer a TS2637V imaging speed on an engine without artificial media size restrictions.
• The registration block offsets were changed to prevent large plates from skewing.
• Add debris hooks to all machines

To allow plates larger than 37” subscan to load without skewing:

• large plates must load on to the 1st and 4^th blocks instead of the 1^st and 3^rd blocks.
• accomplished by swapping the 3^rd and 4^th blocks
• With this change, when dual plate loading is used the two broadsheet plates toe in.
• A fourth rotation parameter had to be added (firmware) to deal with plates wider than broadsheets (450mm) but not wide enough to use the 1^st and 4^th blocks.

ECO E278 releases V1.14 firmware to support B1 machine and fourth rotation parameter to deal with plates wider than broadsheets (450mm) but not wide enough to use the 1^st and 4^th blocks. Released Aug 27, 2001. See release notes for details.

Look for 100 label #6
