The Printing Technician is responsible for the operation, maintenance, and quality output of large-format and specialty printing equipment used to produce graphic elements, signage, banners, wallpapers, fabric prints, and surface wraps for custom event fabrications.

File Preparation & RIP Software: Prepare print-ready files using RIP software; manage colour profiles, bleed, resolution checks, and press-ready settings.
Colour Management: Calibrate printers and perform colour proofing to ensure output accurately matches client-approved artwork (Pantone/CMYK reference).
Substrate Selection: Advise on and select appropriate print media (vinyl, fabric, canvas, mesh, backlit film) based on application and environmental requirements.
Finishing Operations: Cut, laminate, mount, and prepare printed materials for installation; operate cutting plotters and laminators.
Print Quality Control: Inspect all printed outputs for colour accuracy, banding, registration errors, and surface defects before release.
Equipment Maintenance: Perform routine printer maintenance (head cleaning, calibration, ink system checks) and coordinate servicing for breakdowns.
Print Inventory: Manage media rolls, ink consumables, and finishing materials stock; monitor usage and flag replenishment requirements.
Installation Support: Assist with or supervise the application of printed wraps, vinyls, and graphic elements onto fabricated structures
