phototypesetter

 
   
a person who works with a computer and light-sensitive film to produce text ready for printing

COMMENT: The phototypesetter, rather like a large laser printer, normally uses the PostScript page description language and can generate type at 2,540 dpi; if the device is capable of outputting text and half-tone images, it is normally called an image setter.
