The US has become a third world kleptocracy.

I once spent 3 - 4 hours pulling proofs for an ad agency client. It was of the same colour. It was to be for their clients stationery. Each time she would take the proof outside to view under sunlight/daylight. Ad agency was charged for press time. Finally got the OK and printed the order...

:eek: I must have been doing something wrong all these years. I've generally been able to tell if a prospective hire was a good fit and knew what they were talking about after a minute or 2 of conversation.

Sounds like you're wasting your time with this printer. Move on.

No kidding! My response . . . I guess you'll need 5,000 monitors then! In fairness, people are more educated than a few years ago. And monitor quality has improved vastly. I used to have to ask; Is this a monitor you picked up at Walmart for $100.00? They were like early colour televisions...

You should post the original PDF file. Let's start by examining that. What it looks like on screen doesn't matter.

Something about this seems vaguely familiar. It's been years since I've run a Hamada, or any press for that matter. But I seem to recall once having that problem on a Hamada and it seems to me the impression trip required some minute adjustment. I don't remember how to do that. Could've been...

Must be a museum, heh,heh.

That's right. Just kiss the stationary guide (the one that formerly had the spring attached). Obviously make certain the guide is square to the paper. Square a sheet to your front stops, then square the push register guides to the sheet - 90 degrees. You'll find this will save you a ton of...

95% of my time spent running this equipment was without the spring. Way better & faster results. The only time I used the spring was for poorly trimmed paper. Even then it was usually quicker & easier to trim a shave off the paper. Same story with Hamada's when I ran those that had a push...

I could be reading wrong. It sounds like the skew is happening before the paper reaches the stops & feed roller, so why adjust them. I usually found the rubber rollers where the paper first comes off the feed pile to be the reason. If you've been battling this I'll presume you've tried adjusting...

Fill the first box, then do the math for the rest of the job. Take notes so you'll have it for next time. Eventually you'll build up a database of various packaging scenarios.

And electric windows is about where they should have stopped. Apparently you have yet to encounter the 'Stop & Go' feature, or whatever it's called. I'll stop right now, otherwise I'll be ranting for the rest of the day.

Kind of like a lot of the fancy gadgets on my new car.

Well I started out feeling pretty good about my score (and myself), but now that I see the rest of the low-life's have also done well it's ruined my evening and been a blow to my self esteem.

Here's a fun colour test to determine: a) What crappy eyesight you have. b) What a crappy monitor you own. https://www.xrite.com/hue-test I got zero. That's good - the lower your score, the better.

Yes!! And wouldn't you love to be able to bill your late payers for service charges, like the big guys can—credit card companies, banks, utilities—any of those that have a monopoly. I bill them late charges. Seldom get it. Now that I'm distancing myself more from work (retiring) I simply cut off...

The guy has patience I'll grant him that.

Hi Sherbert, That's what it was alright. I guess I clicked on it inadvertently at some point. There's a lot of features I've never used. I generally use InDesign and had this not been a customer supplied file would have used InDesign for this project. I did hunt around trying to see what I'd...

I'm attaching a screen shot from Illustrator 2015, version 19. Somehow I put these things on there. I haven't a clue how, I've no idea what they are or what they're for, but I'd really like to remove them. Upper left looks like a cube of sorts. No idea what the thing is on my artwork. There is...
