Method and exposure device for exposing at least one stored representation on a light-sensitive recording medium

An exposure device for exposing at least one stored image on a light-sensitive recording medium having a width and a length, the exposure device comprising:

• a. at least one exposure head, the at least one exposure head moveable along a first axis across the width of the light-sensitive recording medium, with a movement that is larger than a light-beam sending field of the at least one exposure head, and, is moveable along a second axis, the second axis perpendicular to the first axis, and, the movement of the at least one exposure head along the second axis covering the length of the light-sensitive recording medium, and,
• b. a support, having a width and a length, on which the light-sensitive recording medium is positioned, and,
• c. a linear image acquisition device for recording a complete image of the recording medium and the support, which extends along the first axis over the complete width of the support, and, is movable along the second axis, and,
• d. a control system, that controls movement of the at least one exposure head along both the first and second axis, and, controls movement of the linear image acquisition device, along the second axis, and, controls the actuation of the at least one exposure head for exposing at least one stored image on the light-sensitive recording medium, and, controls the linear image acquisition device to obtain the complete image of the complete light-sensitive recording medium and the support, and is programmed to adjust the control of the at least one exposure head based upon a comparison of the acquired image with a stored location and a stored orientation of the at least one stored image.
