At one time your press was brand new and printed with the consistent performance and dot value of a new press . . . over the years you observed problems with inconsistent dot value and experienced increased adjustments to achieve consistent dot value.

How does this happen?
Over time a roller becomes hard, pitted and worn creating hickeys. Eventually the durometer is too high, causing the rubber to shrink unevenly. Consequently, glazing occurs, as a result of excessive leaching of extractable oils. The result is a roller that is about 40 durometer and that will require 10X the amount of mechanical pressure as a 26 durometer to achieve the same stripe setting. With additional M ... Read more »
