About The Position

PromoCentric is hiring experienced Screen Print Operators to join a fast-paced production team. This role involves setup, registration, and operation of automatic presses (M&R), working as part of a disciplined production team focused on quality and on-time delivery. We are seeking an experienced Automatic Press Screen Printing Operator to run high-volume production on automatic screen-printing presses. This role owns setup, registration, print quality, throughput, and press discipline. If quality drifts, output slows, or a press goes down—this role is accountable for stopping production and escalating issues correctly. This is not an entry-level position. We are looking for an operator who understands process, repeatability, and production pressure and can run an auto press without supervision.

Requirements

3+ years operating automatic screen-printing presses
Proven ability to set up and register multi-color jobs efficiently
Strong understanding of inks, mesh counts, emulsions, and curing requirements
Ability to maintain quality at speed in a production environment
Detail-oriented, process-driven, and comfortable being held to standards
Ability to stand for extended periods and lift up to 50 lbs

Nice To Haves

Experience with high-volume or multi-press production environments
Familiarity with documented production procedures and quality standards
Ability to assist with press troubleshooting and minor mechanical adjustments

Responsibilities

Set up, register, and operate automatic screen-printing presses according to job specifications and approved samples
Load screens in proper sequence and achieve fast, accurate registration
Set and maintain off-contact, squeegee pressure, flood bars, stroke, and press speeds
Mix and manage inks to approved formulas, maintaining viscosity, color accuracy, and opacity
Maintain consistent print quality throughout the production run—no drifting, no “good enough”
Produce and submit first articles for approval before full production
Monitor prints continuously during the run (registration, color density, ink coverage)
Pull samples at defined intervals and stop production immediately if quality falls out of spec
Run the press at agreed-upon production speeds without sacrificing quality
Execute jobs in released sequence; do not self-reorder work
Communicate immediately if anything threatens sustained output or on-time delivery
Maintain clean handoffs to stacking, finishing, and downstream teams
Perform routine preventative maintenance on presses, dryers, and related equipment
Clean, inspect, and lubricate equipment as scheduled
Identify developing mechanical issues early and escalate before downtime occurs
Maintain a clean, organized, production-ready press area
