RRD’s Green Bay facility is seeking a highly skilled Printer Operator to join our high-volume direct marketing print facility. In this role, you will be responsible for setting up, adjusting, operating, and maintaining multi-color, roll-fed web offset presses (and/or gravure machinery). You will manage high-speed, continuous-feed production runs to deliver complex marketing materials that demand strict color values and flawless registration from hairline to critical tolerances.

Key Responsibilities

Press Setup & Make-Ready Tasks

• Job Specification Review: Thoroughly review job tickets and layout proofs to determine the optimal press setup, ink sequence, and web paths required for the continuous roll-fed run.
• Make-Ready Execution: Perform all critical web make-ready tasks, including hanging printing plates or installing cylinders, prepping blankets, threading the paper web through the press units, and setting up the folder/finishing line.
• Precision Mounting: Utilize a micrometer to accurately measure, mount, and align printing plates. Check for correct positioning of images and examine plates/cylinders closely for imperfections before starting the run.

Web Press Operation & Quality Control

• High-Speed Production: Set up, adjust, and safely operate web offset or gravure presses to produce single-color, two-color, and multi-color work featuring large solids, screen tints, line work, and halftones.
• Web Control Management: Continuously monitor and adjust web tension, guiding systems, and moisture-to-ink balances to maintain steady paper flow and prevent web breaks.
• Critical Registration & Color: Dynamically make necessary color corrections, ink-key adjustments, and register tweaks prior to and during production to hit exact client specifications and maintain hairline tolerances.

Maintenance, Repair & Safety

• Routine Maintenance: Clean, lubricate, and maintain the web press daily to maximize machine uptime and prevent ink skinning or roller damage. Perform periodic preventative maintenance recommended by the manufacturer.
• Mechanical Repairs: Diagnose mechanical issues during the run, make major operational adjustments, and perform minor repairs or replace worn/broken components (such as knives, packing, or slitter blades) as required.
• Safety & Compliance: Maintain comprehensive knowledge of and strict compliance with all pressroom safety requirements, including lock-out/tag-out protocols and safety guard regulations around fast-moving webs.
