A spray nozzle system is useful for applying imageable materials onto
substrates. The system may be used for on-site fabrication of
lithographic printing surfaces for use in printing. A wash nozzle and
vacuum port are integrated with the spray nozzle for use in cleaning the
printing residues from a used printing surface in preparation for a
subsequent print job. The integrated nozzle assembly is useful in coating
and cleaning operations, performed either on-press or off-press, and
enables the reuse of a single printing substrate in a number of print
jobs.
