An Offset Printing job involves operating and maintaining printing presses that use offset lithography, a common commercial printing method. Workers set up the press, load paper and ink, calibrate settings, and ensure print quality by adjusting color and alignment. They also troubleshoot mechanical issues, perform routine maintenance, and follow safety protocols. Offset printers often work in publishing, packaging, or commercial printing industries to produce newspapers, magazines, brochures, and other printed materials.

To excel in Offset Printing, you need strong mechanical aptitude, attention to detail, and a good understanding of print production processes, often supported by a high school diploma or relevant vocational training. Familiarity with offset presses, color calibration tools, and quality control systems is typically required, and some employers may prefer industry certifications like those from the Printing Industries of America. Strong problem-solving skills, time management, and the ability to work collaboratively make candidates stand out in this role. These competencies ensure precise print output, minimize errors, and maintain productivity in a fast-paced print environment.

What is the future demand for offset printing?

Offset printing jobs are expected to decline as digital printing becomes more prevalent due to its speed and cost-effectiveness for small runs.

Job description

A day in this role

Your shift begins at a spotless workstation where a new print is waiting. You load material, call up the program, verify offsets, and bring a part to life on a Mazak or Okuma lathe. After first‑article inspection and a few thoughtful tweaks, you switch over to a Haas or Okuma VMC to tackle a multi‑face milling sequence. Throughout the day (or night—both shifts are available), you keep machines dialed in, document what you run, and leave each setup better than you found it.

What you'll do
  • Set up and run CNC lathes and mills to meet print and CAD/CAM specifications.
  • Decode blueprints, drawings, and CAD models to determine tooling, workholding, and sequence.
  • Hold tight tolerances through in‑process checks and final inspection to spec.
  • Keep machines performing at their best through basic maintenance and troubleshooting.
  • Record setups, part counts, and any program/offset changes with clear notes.
  • Follow safety practices and maintain an organized, clean workstation.
What you bring
  • High school diploma or equivalent (technical machining certificate or degree preferred).
  • At least 2 years of hands‑on CNC experience with both mills and lathes.
  • Working knowledge of CNC programming and G‑code.
  • Fluency with precision measurement (calipers, micrometers, gauges) and GD&T symbols.
  • Ability to interpret technical documents and engineering drawings.
  • Sharp problem‑solving skills, meticulous attention to detail, and strong teamwork/communication.
Core skills
  • GD&T
  • Troubleshooting Skills
  • G‑Code
  • CNC Machine Setup & Changeover
  • Machine Setups for Production Runs
Equipment you'll run
  • CNC Lathe (2–4 axis): Mazak, Okuma
  • CNC Mill (5+ axis VMC): Haas, Okuma
Benefits
  • BCBS Medical, Delta Dental, VSP Vision, Disability, Life Insurance, and 401K

If precision, ownership, and continuous improvement motivate you, we’d like to meet you—on day shift or night shift.
