How does it not radiate heat?

While the target does radiate energy absorbed from the rays, the target absorbs most of it [,hence the melting].

How does it not radiate heat?

The whole device is radiation in essence. The radiation is aimed at a particular direction, thus there is very little radiation hitting everything else. Its not as if you have a steel plate at 3500C. That would radiate a lot of heat.
