Abstract

A method for treating a reusable printing technology surface, preferably a printing form that can be re-imaged, with at least one liquid, for example cleaning fluid, rinsing liquid, solution of amphiphilic molecules or gumming agent, includes rotating the printing technology surface about a cylinder axis, applying the liquid to the printing technology surface in the form of a jet and at a varying angle and contacting the printing technology surface with a movable cloth. The printing technology surface is rotated at a varying rotational speed. The rotational speed is preferably varied in stages, in particular increased, in order to achieve the best possible treatment results, for example cleaning and (re-) covering with amphiphilic molecules. The method can preferably be implemented in a printing press or a plate exposer. A machine for treating a reusable printing technology surface and a machine for processing printing material, are also provided.
