 Registration correction on micro-reg vs joystick
I have been doing a lot of 2 color prints on my horrible antiquated table, and I dream of a good press. I have been thinking of getting a riley hopkins when the time comes, because I think the joystick registration would make things pretty easy. But now I wonder what happens if you don't register correctly and need to adjust it during a print? For example, with a table with tons of micro-registration knobs, if you don't register it right the first time, and you see the color 2 is off a tiny bit to the left of color 1, you could just adjust that one screen a little to the left. But what happens if you need to re-adjust the registration on something with a joystick reg system? Or does the joystick work so well that this would never happen?
Which do you guys think is better, knobs or joysticks? I can't wait to get a new press when I get some space. |
