• Perform pre-press, including sizing, bleeds, margins, resolution, color, layout, and imposition.
• Set up jobs based on paper type, size, weight, and production requirements.
• Monitor print quality, color consistency, registration, and overall production.
• Troubleshoot common printing, paper-feeding, registration, and print-quality issues.
• Operate cutting and finishing equipment.
• Cut, trim, laminate, fold, and finish printed products as required.
• Perform final quality control and prepare completed orders.
• Maintain an organized and efficient production area.
