Digital Press Specialist

Elgin, IL
The "Inner Circle" of Print: High-Tech Digital Press Specialist Are you tired of the "retail grind" and ready to step into a high-octane, exclusive production environment? We are looking for a Digital Press Specialist to join an elite, closed-door digital print facility where the public isn't allowed, but industry-leading technology is everywhere.

If you are a technical "gearhead" with an eye for color perfection and the skills to run the Ferraris of the printing world (think Konica KM-1 or HP Indigo), we want to talk to you.

The Perks
  • The Pay: Up to $28/hour (based on your expertise).

  • The Shift: 1st Shift — Reclaim your evenings and enjoy a consistent schedule.

  • The Vibe: A secure, "behind-the-scenes" facility focused on high-volume, high-quality execution for discerning clients. No customers hovering—just you, the tech, and the workflow.

What You’ll Be Doing You aren't just "pushing buttons." You are the pilot of a high-tech production engine. Your day will involve:

  • Mastering the Machines: Full operation and maintenance of large-scale commercial digital presses. You’ll handle everything from routine cleaning and consumables to deep-dive troubleshooting and vendor interfacing.

  • Color Alchemy: Calibrating and linearizing systems to ensure world-class color output. You understand color spaces and ICC profiling like the back of your hand.

  • Precision Production: Managing the production schedule to ensure not a single deadline is missed. You’ll evaluate output, adjust image quality, and keep the workflow moving at lightning speed.

  • The "Quality First" Mindset: Overseeing the quality process before, during, and after production to ensure every piece is flawless.

Who You Are
  • Certified or Experienced: You have Konica Minolta KM-1 or HP Indigo certification (or equivalent high-volume experience).

  • Mechanically Inclined: You’re comfortable with general maintenance, "HFSI" monitoring, and clearing faults/errors to keep the line running.

  • Detail-Obsessed: You can spot a 1-pixel shift from across the room and pride yourself on organized, efficient workflows.

  • Proactive: You don't wait for things to break; you monitor environmental factors (like humidity and temp) to stop problems before they start.

Ready to Level Up? This is your chance to move away from basic printing and into the high-stakes world of commercial digital production. Apply now to secure your spot in this exclusive facility!
