Buying a printing machine for your business may not seem difficult, but there are several factors to consider. Consider your printing needs, space, and budget when choosing a machine. Having a good knowledge of the printing industry will help you choose a machine that will fit your needs.

The type of printing is also an important consideration. Offset printing is a common method of printing. It uses fast-drying inks to produce fine images. This type of printing is used for high-volume printing of packaging, wallpaper, and gift wraps.

The number of colors that a printing press can handle is also important. For instance, you may need more than one color head if you are printing a CMYK design. This is because CMYK requires four colors to be printed. You may not need as many color heads if you are printing a spot color design.

The press should also have enough screens for your job. This will help reduce your wait time and allow for faster work. You should also consider mounting dryers and flashers.

The press also needs to be adjusted to the size of the paper that will be used. You should also check the ink flow during a run. You may need to adjust tension controls and feed controls to make sure that the ink flows evenly throughout the press.

The press should also have a color display so that you can monitor the printing process. Most printers have presses with computers that can be electronically controlled.
