A focus on the latest advancements in high-graphics printing and digital printing, is designed to ensure it re- mains relevant in today’s rapidly evolving landscape. It delves into the discussion of digital print, acknowledging the need for a nuanced approach to addressing defects found in corrugated products. It is broken into four distinct parts which examine, among other topics: the equipment and its operators; a myriad of possible defects; diecutting issues; and gap variations. Those topics are further orga- nized into distinct sub-categories, each written to serve as a roadmap to correct defects and help eliminate uninten- tional issues cropping up in downstream production. Every page contains color images and lists defects and their remedies including corrugating problems, printing problems, die cutting problems, and gap variation and its causes.
