Sean Chief Cook and Bottle Washer East Bay Screenprint	I have a super old Padflex machine that I'm using to venture into the world of printing via pad. My machine has a magnetic chuck on which sits the plate. I know how to adjust the pressure for the doctor/squeegee blades and everything, but what I don't understand is how one is supposed to keep the ink from running off the plate. I feel like I'm missing something here. Do you tape around the plate or something? Sorry for the newbie questions, it's just that I am a newbie at this, with no literature or training to go by. Thanks. ____________________ East Bay Screenprint
