Hi all!! I was going to make a vlog but this ended up being more like an instructional video. If you've always been curious about the riso printing process, this would be a good introduction, I think.

    No point, offset is way cheaper and faster for large batches. At this point only artists use Riso it's hard to fake the analog effects digitally

    1) Use the Riso FW5130 series, which is full color. Ink is very similar (I wouldn't be surprised of it's the same ink). It also does not use a master so no reason to refill masters or empty them. 2) Use at least once a day (twice a week minimum) as it is ink based and will clog up the holes and you'll need to call a tech to unclog them. 3) Try leaving the printed pages to dry before running it through the machine again to avoid roller Mark's in the second pass. There is no heating element (unlike copiers) so you have to let it air dry. 4) It is a high volume machine so if you're going to run fewer than 30 prints, you might as well use a copier as it is cheaper. 5) We're basically talking about a glorified ink jet printer so take similar cautions as you would an ink jet. 6) Risos are built around the ink and the guy who invented it said as much Therefore inks are very expensives.

    Thanks so much for this very thoughtful comment! I will look into that machine, since I haven't heard of it before. I do always airdry for at least a half a day, a whole day if my deadlines permit me. :-) But the ink still smudges when there's heavy coverage, and sometimes artists just spray fixative on the prints tbh. It's true that the riso becomes more cost effective as volume goes up, for sure!!! Thank you again for the comment!!

    Videos like this make me happy, as Riso is awesome, but also sad because mine is just sat gathering dust as 99% of my print jobs for people these days end up being best suited to laser and thus that is what I end up doing :(. It's the low number issue that you mention, people just want 1-5 of stuff they just don't 'get' it. My poor, poor riso :(. Superb video though :D, really explained it well. Perhaps I should just send potential clients and link to it to explain better than I do haha.

    I'm interested in your comment. I was just sitting here wondering how in the world this process could possibly compete with either inkjet or laser, both of which register perfectly and dry completely on a wide variety of papers, including coated grades. Olivia says in the video that she can only use uncoated paper, the ink never really dries, her customers some times get ink on their hands from her finished product, she has trouble with tracking marks, and registration is not guaranteed. How is that "far superior"? (Full disclosure - I am retired from nearly 40 years in the printing industry, both offset lithography and letterpress.) This is not meant as any kind of negative comment; I just don't understand.

    Extremely informative. After watching this, why would anyone even bother with a risograph?

    Amazing! Thanks to Novum, I discovered Risograph. I liked the illustrations at 6'12". Is the book being sold? What's the name? Thanks.
