Abstract
An apparatus for mounting a plate on a plate cylinder includes a plate lockup device, reference pins, and a lamp. The plate lockup device is provided in a gap formed in the circumference surface of the plate cylinder. The reference pins are electrically rendered conductive by an insertion end of a plate inserted to a gripper surface of the plate lockup device, thereby detecting insertion of the plate. The lamp confirms and indicates insertion of the plate from an output from the reference pins.
