摘要

A system and method for printing member re-makes in CTP systems is disclosed. According to one aspect of the invention, a code associated with the digital data representing the content image thereof and with the printing member's status, is printed on the printing member produced by the CTP system. Once the printing member is produced, its quality is examined manually or automatically on-system or off the system. If not satisfactory the code enables easier retrieval of the digital information to be recorded on the printing member and thus more efficient remake thereof.
