Zusammenfassung:	A system for processing a printing form 22 comprising: a rotatable drum 56; a first means 112 for receiving a first portion of the printing form that is coupled to the drum; a rotatable mounted member 104 that extends over a portion of a drum surface and can rotate independently about the drum surface for securing printing forms of different sizes circumferentially about the drum; a second means 134 for receiving a second portion of the printing form, that is disposed on the member, so that there is tension on the printing form; and a torque conditioner 174, that is circumferentially coupled to the member, for applying a torque on the member to place tension on the printing form, and for adjusting the torque on the member to adjust the tension on the printing form, so as to maintain substantially constant tension on the printing form as the drum is rotating.
