For over 40 years, SignPrint has built a solid reputation as a premium supplier of stickers and related products. The company has grown to become a major national supplier to the Waste, Hire and Manufacturing industries.

We are currently looking for experienced Signwriters, Printing Machinists, and Graphic Pre-Press Trades Workers to join our team in Canning Vale. To be considered for these positions, you will need to have 2 years' previous experience working in a similar role.

* Preflighting Files: Check for missing fonts, low-resolution images, incorrect colour profiles, or layout issues. Communicate with clients or sales staff regarding necessary file corrections or adjustments.
* Colour Management: Convert RGB designs to CMYK and apply proper ICC colour profiles for accurate output. Maintain consistency across multiple substrates (vinyl, mesh, fabric, rigid board, etc.).
* Imposition and Layout: Prepare print-ready layouts with correct panelling, tiling, grommet marks, cut paths, and overlap for large graphics. Set up files for contour cutting, CNC routing, or lamination when required.
* Proofing and Approvals: Generate soft or hard proofs for internal and client approval. Make revisions and finalise files based on feedback.
* Workflow and RIP Management: Send files to RIP software (e.g., Onyx, Caldera, Fiery) and troubleshoot issues. Monitor the digital workflow to ensure production deadlines are met.
* Quality Assurance: Double-check all files before printing to minimise waste and reprints. Collaborate with print operators to verify file integrity during production.
* Automation: Keep Print and Deliver Automation flow constant and rectify errors. Maintain Grafana queues to minimum.
