Next, the operation of the embodiment will be described based on the baking procedure. First, in the case of surface burning, the unexposed film (50) and the reversal film (52) are placed one on top of the other on the film mounting plate (22). As shown in FIG. 4, the unexposed light film (50) has through holes (50A), (50B) and (50C), and the reversing film (52) has through holes (52A) and (52B). (52C) are formed respectively. The through holes (50A), (50C), (52A), (52C) are formed in an elliptical shape, and the through holes (50B), (52B) are formed in a circular shape. Therefore, the fixed register pin (40A) is inserted into the through holes (50A) and (52A), and the fixed register pin (40B) is inserted into the through holes (50C) and (52C). The film (50) and the reversing film (52) are positioned. Moreover, in this case, the operation lever (44) is moved in the direction of the arrow C so that the moving register pin (41B) is projected and inserted into the through holes (50B), (52B). Therefore, it is not necessary to separately prepare a register pin bar or the like for positioning the unexposed film (50) and the reversing film (52) and mount it on the printer (10). When the positioning work is completed, the pressing plate (30) is rotated in the direction of approaching the film mounting plate (22) so that the film mounting plate (22) and the pressing plate (30) form an unexposed film (50). And the reversal film (52). At this time, as shown in FIG. 3, the hook fitting (36) engages with the hook receiving fitting (38) of the base (24), so that the film placing plate (22) and the pressing plate (30) are securely attached. The unexposed film (50) and the reversal film (52) are sandwiched between them. Further, since the film mounting plate (22) is made of urethane, the unexposed film (50) and the reversing film (52) are in contact with the film mounting plate (22) without a gap. Moreover, since the unexposed film (50) and the reversing film (52) are sandwiched and adhered by the weight of the pressing plate (30) and the film mounting plate (22), excessive pressurization due to vacuum pressure bonding is avoided and the Newton ring. Can be suppressed. Next, when the side lights (14A), (14B), (14C), (14D) or the center light (14E) are selected and turned on, the light is exposed through the Fresnel lens (16). It Moreover, since the light emitted from the side lights (14A), (14B), (14C), (14D) or the center light (14E) passes through the Fresnel lens (16), ideal parallel light rays can be obtained. it can. The side lights (14A), (14B), (14C), (14D) or the center light (14E) are preferably selected and turned on depending on the pattern to be printed. When back baking is performed, the unexposed film (50) and the reversing film (52) that have been overlaid are reversed and placed on the film placing plate (22). Therefore, the fixed register pin (40A) is inserted into the through holes (50C) and (52C), and the fixed register pin (40B) is inserted into the through holes (50A) and (52A). Moreover, in this case, if the operation register (44) is moved in the direction of the arrow B so that the movement register pin (41B) is retracted and the movement register pin (41A) is projected, the movement register pin (41A) is penetrated. It is inserted into the holes (50B) and (52B). Therefore, the unexposed film (50) and the reversal film (52) are positioned. Subsequent operations are the same as those for the front grilling, so the description thereof is omitted.

Although the light source box (12) is provided above the film sandwiching body (20) in the above embodiment, the light source box (12) may not be provided. Further, although the Frennel lens (16) as the special glass is used in the above embodiment, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, instead of the Frennel lens (16), opalescent opal is used, or the Frennel lens (16) is used. ) And opalescent opal may be used at the same time. In the above embodiment, the leaf spring (43) is used so that when one of the moving register pin (41A) and the moving register pin (41B) protrudes, the other of the moving register pin (41A) is retracted. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the lower part of the moving register pin (41A) and the lower part of the moving register pin (41B) are connected by a rod, and the longitudinal center part of this rod is set as a fulcrum to move the moving register pin (41A) or the moving register pin ( 41B) may have a structure in which when one protrudes, the other immerses.
