Been hanging out with this guy all day |
WHAT I DID
- Started color separating Bluebird Cafe posters
- Printed background block for Bluebird Cafe posters
How much ink does it take to print a full-sized background block on 400 sheets of ink-thirsty chipboard? Well, a little more than this much. |
WHAT I LEARNED
- How to operate at top speed on the back press
- The longer you print, the faster the press will move
- If the press moves too fast, it will slam as it hits the end of the press
- To prevent slamming, bring the cylinder back before it reaches the end of the press
- Because the brakes are currently out of whack, you can also "manually" break the press by holding onto it as it comes back
- Chipboard tends to curl back and get caught on the cylinder; you can catch it yourself if it starts to do this
