<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a wet platemaking machine in which developer is not consumed wastefully and the state of temperature inside the machine can be easily maintained to be more appropriate by room temperature air which is relatively low temperature. <P>SOLUTION: The wet platemaking machine is provided with: an exposure latent image forming apparatus forming an electrostatic latent image on a photoreceptor surface of a master sheet; a developing apparatus developing an image on the master sheet by developer; a fixing apparatus drying and fixing a developed image; and an exhaust fan exhausting high temperature air inside the machine outside the machine which are placed approximately adjacently, and performs image processing of the master sheet, wherein an air supply duct taking in air outside the machine from above the machine is provided in between the exposure latent image forming apparatus and the developing apparatus, the top parts of the developing apparatus and the fixing apparatus are sealed by a developing part sealing panel and a fixing part sealing panel respectively, the developing apparatus and the fixing apparatus are partitioned by a partition plate so that high temperature air from the fixing apparatus does not flow into the developing apparatus, and an air path inside the machine communicating the air supply duct with the exhaust fan are formed. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI |
