This would be funny if it weren't true. But it's true so it can't be funny - which is pretty funny. LOL

Call the ink guy!

 

[Disappointed]

No, call the paper guy, it's clearly paper contamination

 

[pdan]

It's the deadline

 

[Lukas Engqvist]

Haha he didn't blame prepress…*yet

 

[Servicetech]

There must be something wrong with the printing press, call a mechanic...

 

[Happyprinter]

No, it has to be the paper!!!

 

[inky]

It's the weather?

 

[Deleted member 16349]

It's the ink feed.

 

[Visualaid]

it was the chemtrails!

 

[SilvaJr]

I think are the bussel wheels...

 

[tommrz]

[Lukas Engqvist]

Oh no you mean they didn't do the ritual with the chicken?

In all seriousness I have seen this before. It's the Fetzer Valve.

Maybe you all need a refresher course. Here's what you need to do, "prepare that Fetzer valve with some 3-in-1 oil and some gauze pads. And (you are) gonna need 'bout ten quarts of anti-freeze, preferably Prestone. No, no make that Quaker State."

What usually happens is the pressman over phlogisticates the press. They never seem to learn that too much phlogiston is going to cause problems eventually.

They put the web stretcher on backwards, or, they are not using the correct size pre-registered dots.....

 

[Elewis]

So why all the hostility? Show your Press-room some love, after all they still are the bread and butter in every Print house I have ever been in, and I am yet to meet a pre-press person with the pay of a good Press operator.

 

[Kramer68]

Its just something we use to tell the new joggers to go find.
