Sheet-fed offset is most widely used method in the printing industry. In the sheet-fed offset presses, the time consumes during job change. The pre-makeready operations also effects the job change overtime in the sheet-fed offset presses. Therefore, it becomes very important to find out the various factors influencing the pre-makeready operations. In this research, various factors taken into account and measured/observed on each job day-to-day basis. We have found that few factors are more responsible those influenced pre-makeready process.
