Abstract:
A method and apparatus to expose photosensitive printing plates with a predetermined radiation density from the main side (top) and a predetermined radiation density from the back side (bottom). The method comprises executing the main exposure with a time delay after the back exposure. The time delay between back exposure and main exposure is optimized to create smaller stable single dot elements on the photosensitive printing plate after processing and smaller single element dot sizes printed on the print substrate. The plate floor may be adjusted by performing a back-side-only exposure prior to executing the combined back and main exposure with the time delay.

Claim (Index 3):
The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the one or more radiation sources comprise a plurality of LED point sources configured to emit UV light, the plurality of LED point sources collectively configured to illuminate a collective illumination area, the LED point sources controllable by the controller over an output area that is less than the collective illumination area, wherein each LED point source is a member of a group comprising a plurality of LED point sources, and the controller is configured to (a) provide individual control of light intensity from each group to compensate for variations in light output of one group relative to another, (b) compensate for variations in transmissivity of a surface disposed between the light source and the plate, or (c) a combination thereof.
