We need to produce 110,000 plates for printing a year said Tony
Wallace of R. R. Donnelly and Sons an existing Team ASA Customer.
Right now only about 30% of those are direct to plate, Team ASAs
Gigabit Ethernet solution makes it possible to do 100% of this work
in digital domain continued Wallace.

The suggested retail price for the Stallion-GE Gigabit Ethernet
adapter is $1,495.00 which includes the Team ASA Open Transport, and
