Platemaking workflow: 1 When the Load command is given, the input rollers pull the
media from the input cassette and load it into the drum. A semicircular guide hoop is mounted at the left end of the carriage. During media loading the carriage is located so that the guide supports the left edge of the selected media. The right edge is supported by a fixed guide. These guides support the media during loading and prevent it from falling onto the optics unit. Sensors on the guides report an error if the media is not properly loaded.
The input and output rollers feed the media around the drum and through the output and knife module, holding the media securely in place. The input and output sensors monitor the position of the media and report an error if the media is not loaded or positioned properly.
2-2
Getting Started
The optics unit moves to the right-hand end of the drum. The media is exposed from right to left. The media is exposed by a laser which spins continuously around a central spindle as the carriage moves along the length of the drum. The carriage will only move as far as necessary to expose the job, depending on the format of the page and its orientation in the drum.
The input rollers, output rollers and buffer rollers then transfer the exposed media from the drum to the guide box. At the same time, media for the next page enters the drum. If the Take-up Cassette accessory is installed, the exposed media will leave the drum and enter the Take-up Cassette instead of the Guide Box.
5 6
The second plate is positioned at the drum and optional punch centerline. This plate is written in the same manner as the first. The input and output rollers advance the tail of the first plate to the knife position. The knife cuts the media and the buffer rollers pass the media through the buffer module to the guide box section and the processor. If desired, the media in the drum can be removed using the UNLOAD command, and a different input cassette can be installed. If the Take-up Cassette accessory is installed, an EJECT command can be issued. The media is cut, and the buffer rollers pass the media into the Take-up Cassette. The cassette can be removed and the media developed off-line. If the guide box is installed, an EJECT command can be issued to advance a held plate to the processor.

Recommending Supplies
Use of quality media and chemicals are essential to obtaining the desired results from your DPM 2508. Information is provided here on approved media and chemicals that will deliver expected results when used with the DPM 2508. Also included, are tips about these materials that will aid in achieving consistently satisfying results.
About Chemicals
Never use Mega Pro plate media with chemicals designed for other plate systems. Always use the correct media and chemical combination. Furthermore, Mega media must be processed at a specific temperature. The online processor is set at this temperature at the factory. Never use Rapid Access fixer or developer in the DPM 2508 processor. Plate media requires two processing chemicals--activator and stabilizer. The activator is available in four 1-gallon containers (PC 38750) or in one 5-gallon container (PC 38745). Stabilizer is available in four 1-gallon containers (PC 38756) or in one 5-gallon container (PC 38753). These come in concentrated form, and you simply mix with water before using them in the processor of the DPM 2508. See To fill the processor with chemicals: on page 5-5. Plate etch (PC 38766) for Mega plates is wiped on the plate, full strength, before the plate is run. It prepares the plate surface for proper acceptance of ink and water during printing. It may not be used as a fountain solution. Fountain solution A.B.Dick provides a variety of fountain solutions to match your presss dampening system. Use deletion fluid (PC 38771) to mask or erase unwanted images on plates. Apply deletion fluid before the plate is etched.
2-16
Getting Started
Processing Offline
When processing image setting film sent to the Take-up Cassette Accessory, use of Rapid Access chemicals is suggested.
Store plate media away from sources of excessive heat, like radiators
and direct sunlight.
Avoid touching the printing surface of media. Use A.B.Dick activator, stabilizer, etch, and fountain solution for best
results.
Getting Started
2-17
To power on the DPM 2508: 1 Check that both processor tanks are filled with chemicals. If they
are not, see the To fill the processor with chemicals: on page 5-5 located within Changing Chemicals.
