The printing plate should be hung on a special iron frame, classified and numbered for easy handling, the room should be dark and not exposed to strong light, the environment should be dry and cool, and the temperature should be moderate (20°-  27°). In summer, it should be placed in an air-conditioned room, and it must be kept away from ozone. The environment should be clean and free from dust.

The correct cleaning of the printing plate can extend the life of the printing plate. During the printing process or after printing, you must use a brush or sponge stockings dipped in the washing potion (if you have no conditions, you can use washing powder soaked in tap water) to scrub, scrub in a circular motion (not too hard), thoroughly scrub the paper scraps, dust, debris, grit, and residual ink thoroughly, and finally rinse with tap water. If these dirts are not clean, especially if the ink dries up, it will not be easy to remove it, and it will cause pasting plate during the next printing. It will be difficult to clean it by scrubbing on the machine at that time, and excessive force can easily cause partial damage to the printing plate and affect the use. After scrubbing, let it dry and place it in a thermostatic plate room.
