The typical stages of our operation are pre-press, mounting, printing, and washup. Some days I mount the plates using the VIPER video plate mounter to make sure they are precisely positioned for printing. Other days, I work in pre-press to make sure the jobs are ready to run. I also take a turn at washing up when we have to change inks. That’s what makes my job so interesting, I’m not standing in the same place doing the same thing every day.”
