1 Introduction
Description of the Unit and its Functions
The Prosetter 52/74/102 works as an imagesetter basedon the indrum principle and is used for imaging Post-ScriptTM, PDF and TIFF files onto metal printingplates.
These files are converted by the connected RIP (RasterImage Processor) and are then sent to the Prosetter52/74/102.
The Prosetter 52/74/102 has a V.24/LVDS interface fora RIP connection (e.g. Meta Dimension).
A violet laser, equipped with a wavelength of 405 nm,effects exposure on metal printing plates.
The printing plate is inserted manually via the feed-ing table. The Prosetter 52/74/102 automatically loadsthe printing plate to the mold images it, punches it(option) and then transports the imaged plate back to
the insertion table.

Exposure Principle
The Prosetter 52/74/102 is an area imagesetter. Therecording beam does not expose the composition
work character for character, but instead moves overthe entire width of the printing plate, line by line.This recording process requires that the PostScript
files are converted to image dot files (pixel files) by

the RIP before exposure starts. The number of image
dots (pixels) per centimeter (lines/cm) or dots per inch(dpi) depends on the selected resolution.
The laser in the optical head emits a laser beamwhich is modulated (lightened/darkened) accordingto the video data transferred.The laser beam, formed correspondingly in the opti-cal head, is deflected via a rapidly rotating mirror.The deflected beam of the optical system moves in anaxial direction and exposes the printing plate line byline.

0 Plate edges can be sharp. Put on protective gloves.This will protect you from injury.
0 Never touch the emulsion side of the printingplate with your bare hands. Finger prints will beproduced on the printing plate which canadversely affect the print quality.
0 The printing plates are very easily scratched. It istherefore essential to insert slip sheets when youplace printing plates on top of each other, so thatthey cannot scrape against each other.
0 Do not expose the printing plates to light and onlyas briefly as possible to yellow light because yellowlight will also cause pre-exposure.
Material storage
For the storage of printing plates,
0 prior to exposure,
0 after exposure and
0 after development,
various requirements apply which can be obtainedfrom the manufacturer of the printing plates.

Loading a printing plate
Warning: Do not put your fingers into the insertionslot in the insertion table. There is a risk of beingcrushed by the printing plate gripper approx. 30 cmbehind the insertion slot. If any parts have slippedthrough the insertion slot into the unit you mustremove the side panels to take them out, seesection Removing a printing plate or other partsfrom the exposure mold, page 316.
Warning: Plate edges can be sharp. Failure to wearprotective gloves can result in injuries to your hands.
1. Pull on protective gloves.
2. Take the requested printing plate from the packag-ing.
3. Remove all slip sheets or packaging materials which
may adhere to the plate.
Warning: Carefully remove all slip sheets or packag-ing materials from both sides of the printing platebefore loading it into the Prosetter 52/74/102. Thelaser beam could ignite the material and cause a firein the Prosetter 52/74/102.
4. Place the printing plate centrically ( 50 mm) on theinsertion table with the emulsion side facing up.
5. Push the plate as far as it can go into the device. A sig-nal sounds when the printing plate is in the correctposition.
6. In the Prosetter 52/74/102 user interface click the"Load Material" button.This step is only required when you wish to load theprinting plate without a request from the RIP.
When the RIP has sent a request, the printing plate isloaded automatically

Unloading the printing plate
For discharging the printing plates onto the insertiontable of the Prosetter 52/74/102 you can choosebetween two modes of operation:
0 The printing plate is ejected at the insertion tableimmediately after exposure.
You should only select this mode if you are surethat the printing plate is removed from the inser-tion table for further processing immediately
after it has been ejected to protect it from contin-ued exposure by the ambient light.
0 The printing plate remains in the unit after expo-sure and is ejected at the insertion table onrequest.
You should select this mode if a light-sensitiveprinting plate is processed or if you cannot ensurethat the printing plate is removed from the inser-
tion table for further processing immediatelyafter it has been ejected.
The mode of operation is set at the workstation viathe Prosetter 52/74/102 user interface, seesection Setting the mode of operation for printingplate discharge, page 38.
