    Cracking Paper

    Fwiw Fwiw I can't speak to issues with cracking at the fold in regards to digital printing. With regard to sheetfed offset lithography, when all else failed, we would send the job out to be "Heat Scored". It always seemed to work effectively. The last resort MH/CP - Just Say "No" to Cracks OT

    OxyDry powder systems

    For what it's worth? For what it's worth? As far as I know, the OxyDry units are not speed compensated. Meaning that the amount of powder delivered, remains constant regardless of press speed. So another means of altering the amount of powder being delivered, would be to increase or decrease...

    Heidelberg Sheet Arrival Eye Adjustment

    If it were me, I would set all the head-stops to their neutral position. Meaning that they are equidistant from either of their maximal ranges. Then back-off the positioning of the center most head-stops about half a turn or so, so that only the two outer most head-stops will be responsible for...

    More history on OPI & FPO More history on OPI & FPO Just to expand somewhat on John Clifford's comments about OPI. The high res files would be stored locally to the RIP and the low res OPI images sent from the workstation over the network would contain a tag comment informing the RIP of the...

    Random spots showing up

    Sucker feet marks

    I agree with REYES1377, spray powder should not ordinarily cause a low spot. Anyways, if you do get a blanket smash for whatever reason, there are two methods that I used to use to repair the smash. One method was to apply a gel type product to the affected area of the blanket. The product...

    What bothers you most? How would you fix it?

    I guess I would have to say that the lack of teamwork and the failures in communication were ultimately what bothered me the most. To be honest, I didn't realistically have any idea how to fix things when I was a participant in the industry. I've been retired for many years now, so perhaps the...

    Cutting Parent size stock for press

    Perhaps a compromise solution can be found? Perhaps a compromise solution can be found? In my experience, cover-weight stocks produced more debris on the bevel edge side of the blade than did book weight stocks. C1S cover-weight stocks were worse than C2S. Perhaps you could take photos of the...
