Emancipation from emulsification

• Set the ink and dampening balance correctly, and check it continuously throughout the run

• If the ink emulsifies, wash the rollers and re-establish the smearing limit

• Check the dampening solution and change it regularly (the ideal alcohol-based dampening solution has a water hardness from 8 to 12°dH, a pH value from 4.8 to 5.5, and a temperature from 10°C to 15°C or 50°F to 59°F; for solution using an alcohol substitute, pH should be 3.8 to 4.6, and the temperature should be 12ºC to 17ºC or 54ºF to 62ºF)
