How far away from the press do you guys have your ink setup? I'd REALLY like to move our ink so we could have more space for shelves. But I keep thinking if it isn't right by the presses we will waste time....
It's not how far away that really matters, it's how you get the ink to the press. Along with the screens, the squeegee flood and whatnot.
My ink area is to the right of what I call the heart of the operation, my screen in out area. Once the screens are taped up and in the cart, it moves to ink staging where my ink guy has the inks on a shelf waiting. He stocks the cart with the ink where it is then staged for production. When it's time, ink sticks go into the ink, squeegee and floods go on the cart and it's wheeled to the press for setup.
