Re: HELP! Mottled images on press
The job is a 2 color christmas card, the background is mostly solid PMS, but there are screen graphics within the solid (same PMS as solid @ 70% & 85% screens) that are mottled. The pressman said that the plate and the blanket looked fine, the problem seemed to develop once it hit the sheet. The plate is on the last unit so i guess that would eliminate back trap. Also ran some 1 color (Black) jobs on the uncoated side of 16pt C1S board wth med-light coverage with same problems in about a 50 or 60% screen @ 133 lpi. Ran the same christmas card, same ink, same stock on a ryobi 3302 @ 150 lpi and it looked fine. The press thats having the problem is a 2 color 36" H'berg sordz. We are calling in a mechanic to have a look a the press itself. I appreciate all the input!
