Ha! I have in my possession an actual MANUAL for the thing that came
packed with my unit.
Item #5 states:
5. "The light exposure information boxes along the top of the control
panel (E1, E2, etc) can be used for recording the units of light for a
particular material. A felt-tip water soluble marking pen can be sued
to write down the exposure information so that it's always at the
operator's fingertips"
Pretty high tech, huh? I KNEW penmanship would come in handy someday.
As an aside, did any of you follow the discussion on the other alt-list
about the ability of the Nuarc to generate nasty moire patterns in
multi-layer gums when using linescreen imagesetter negs ? Stan Klimek
and I both have seen this, and we both use plateburners. Three others
on the list who use fluorescent light boxes use the same type of
negative with nary a problem. If ever there were evidence that the
collimated light of a plateburner is a little 'sharper' than the
diffuse light of a light box, I think this would be it. FWIW, the
stochastic screened imagesetter negs do not create this problem when
used in a plateburner for multicoat gum.

PS, how's about a nice yummy gum instead of $0.25?
