Sheetfed Offset Press Technician (Labels & Packaging)What your day looks like

Start your morning on first shift, Monday–Thursday, 7:00 AM–3:30 PM, by reviewing the day’s job tickets and confirming substrates, inks, coatings, and finishing details. You’ll stage materials, load sheets, mount plates and blankets, balance ink and water, and lock in registration and color. Throughout the run you’ll watch the press closely—tuning ink flow, impression pressure, and feeder settings—while performing frequent quality checks to meet customer specs and production timelines. When issues arise, you’ll troubleshoot fast to minimize waste and downtime. You’ll wrap up with cleaning, routine maintenance, and communicating status with supervisors, production, and quality teams.
