Jonathan Murkin, Lead Hand Platemaker
My Day
Internal Customers
The Pre-Press Department customers are the three printing presses. Each one has a unique schedule managed by a scheduler.
We have to plan and schedule our work well ahead to keep them supplied with plates.
As Lead Hand, my customers are the platemakers. I supply them with film layouts and scheduling information so they can shoot the printing plates.
It's really a case of supply and demand.
