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
Chapter 3 provides instructional information on how to load media. Guidelines for
handling media are also provided.
Chapter 4: General Maintenance andTroubleshooting
Chapter 5 covers general maintenance items that can be performed by the operator.

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.
