    L-shaped perforation

    I would try turning up your cylinder pressure via the dial behind the hand wheel. You can also try putting a bit of packing under the blanket to build it up and creat more pressure for the perf. Don't forget litho perf will wreck your blanket so use an older one.

    Inherited small print shop...
