Second, production preparation
- Check the handover record,
- After receiving the production designation form, first check whether the designation form is correct and understand the process requirements, production quantity and precautions of the products to be produced. The jobs printed in two shifts should be marked on the printing surface in order to trace the quality problems.
- Prepare the original and auxiliary materials according to the designated list.
- Read the product designation sheet carefully to understand whether the product has special requirements, such as:

(1) There is a large color difference and no ink phenomenon;
(2) Defects of graphics and text or problems with the printing plate;
(3) The printing surface is dirty;
(4) Machine failure; - Observe whether there is any problem with the machine at any time during production, and guarantee it in time.
- If it is found that the material problem cannot be solved on the spot, the production should be stopped and reported to the quality inspector for the relevant department to solve it and prepare for the follow-up production.
Fourth. Operation specification after the end of production
- Separate the printed qualified products from the products to be inspected and mark them clearly.
- The captain arranges personnel to clean and maintain the machine in accordance with the “Machine Maintenance System”.
- Cut off the power and air flow.
