Preface

Scope of this Guide

This guide provides instructions for the operating and maintaining a Mako 4 CTP

platesetter. This guide describes all aspects of the operation of the system, from the

loading of media, to the delivery of exposed media to an on-line processor.

The Mako 4 CTP employs a Class 3B laser. This guide contains important safety

information and regulatory information about the laser.You should read this

information thoroughly before operating the system or performing the procedures

described in this guide.

This guide assumes that the system is already properly installed and plugged into

the AC mains. Further, this manual assumes that the system has been calibrated

and tested for proper operation and acceptable output. Only procedures necessary

for safe and efﬁcient operation are provided in this manual.

Organization of this Guide

Chapter 1: Requirements and Safety

Chapter 1 includes system operating requirements and information about laser

safety.

Chapter 2: System Operation

Chapter 2 discusses all operational features and provides complete listings of

system operational messages. All of the system menus are described in detail. All

of the menu items are mapped in ﬂow diagrams.

Chapter 3: Media Handling

Requirements

and Safety

Introduction to the System

The Mako 4 CTP produces plates for use in the printing industry. Plates are

manually loaded by positioning the plate in the pin registration system and closing

the pinch rollers. Imaging of the plate is then started with the push of a button.

When the imaging is complete, the exposed plate automatically passes out of the

platesetter and onto the media transport, which feeds the plate into a customer-

supplied plate processor .

All operations (plate loading, imaging, and transport to the processor) must be

performed in a safe-light environment. Refer to your plate manufacturer’s

speciﬁcations for safe-light requirements.

Laser Safety

Laser Product Classiﬁcation

The system is classiﬁed as a Class one (I) laser product which contains a Class 3B

(IIIb) laser System. This classiﬁcation means that the operator is exposed to no

hazardous laser light during operation and maintenance. The laser itself, however,

is a Class 3B (IIIb) laser device, and emits visible laser light which is considered

hazardous by FDA published limits.

IMPORTANTWARNING

se of controls or adjustments or performance of

procedures other than those speciﬁed in this guide

may result in hazardous laser light exposure.

System LaserWavelength Identiﬁcation Label

The system contains a laser that emits visible laser light. The identiﬁcation label is

located on the output side of the machine, above the output rollers. The label is

shown in Figure 1-1.
