PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent image information recorded in used stencil paper from being leaked upon plate discharge.SOLUTION: A plate discharging apparatus 50 is provided which comprises stencil paper plate discharging transportation means 55 that removes stencil paper M, where thermofusion film Mf is pasted on a porous support Ms, from the outer peripheral surface 31a of a plate cylinder 31 and transports the removed used stencil paper M into a plate discharging box 51 installed in a vicinity of the outer peripheral surface 31a of the plate cylinder 31, the stencil paper plate discharging transportation means 55 comprising a first plate discharging rotor 59, installed in a vicinity of the inlet 51a of the plate discharging box 51 to rotate at a first line velocity V1 on contact with the porous support Ms of the stencil paper M, and a second plate discharging rotor 62, installed opposite to the first plate discharging rotor 59 in a vicinity of the inlet 51a of the plate discharging box 51 to rotate at a second line velocity V2 different from the first line velocity V1, when nipping the stencil paper M with the first plate discharging rotor 59, on contact with the thermofusion film Mf of the stencil paper M.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 |
