Conventional offset printing coordinates ink and dampening conditions; the suitable balance depends on the press, materials and printing process. Start with substrate change, verify plate specification, and use the result to specification.
Conventional offset printing coordinates ink and dampening conditions; the suitable balance depends on the press, materials and printing process.
Substrate change is the use or operating condition applied to this offsetprintingwork.cyou record. Confirm the actual site conditions and available evidence before applying the guidance.
Plate specification is a decision factor that must be observed, measured, or checked in appropriate documentation. Record the method, conditions, and uncertainty where relevant.
Record the exact system, intended duty, operating limits, applicable instructions, and acceptance checks before choosing equipment or work.
Print defect review is the use or operating condition applied to this offsetprintingwork.cyou record. Confirm the actual site conditions and available evidence before applying the guidance. Press configuration is a decision factor that must be observed, measured, or checked in appropriate documentation. Record the method, conditions, and uncertainty where relevant.
Apply Offset ink water balance differently as the operating condition and decision factor change.
| Condition | Factor | How to apply it |
|---|---|---|
| New offset job | Plate specification | For Offset ink water balance, verify plate specification before using the answer to specification. |
| Repeat print run | Press configuration | For Offset ink water balance, verify press configuration before using the answer to maintenance. |
| Substrate change | Paper condition | For Offset ink water balance, verify paper condition before using the answer to verification. |
| Print defect review | Ink system | For Offset ink water balance, verify ink system before using the answer to identify. |
