How to check a leaflet that is not on a web
A leaflet that is not on a web is checked sheet by sheet or stack by stack. A walk around the press is not that check. A sheet has no metres. The record uses a stack number, an inkjet code, or a sheet count. Missing pages and wrong pages come back from the customer more often than dirt.
A leaflet that is not on a web has to be checked sheet by sheet or stack by stack. A walk around the press is not that check. A sheet has no metre count. The record uses a stack number, an inkjet code, or a sheet count. Missing pages and wrong pages are returned by the customer more often than dirt.
Why it is judged this way
A leaflet often goes wrong at folding or at gathering. The camera on the press does not see a wrongly gathered set. If this job requires every sheet to have been seen, there has to be a station before gathering or packing that can stop a bad sheet, and the record has to say which stack it was.
What to compare
| What you see | Call it | Do not |
|---|---|---|
| A wrong gather or a missing page | Check it at gathering | Rely only on a walk around the press |
| Dirt on one sheet | Follow the dirt table, and write the stack number | Release the whole stack by word of mouth |
| No inkjet code, so the sheet cannot be found again | Add an identifier before claiming 100 percent inspection | Write that 100 percent inspection was done |
Check at a job change or a new pile
- Decide whether the record unit is the stack, the inkjet code, or the sheet.
- Pull one page out on purpose and confirm the gathering check finds it.
- If there is no way to locate the sheet, do not write in the report that every sheet was inspected.
