TO SAVE ROLLERS FROM PER-
FORATION

Nearly all job printers have checks,
notes, receipts and tickets to print
that require single line of perforat-
ing rule. and the rule is almost GER
tain to ruin the rollers by cutting
them. In order to overcome the trou-
Bile, take a piece of gummed cloth
long enough to go twice around the
rollers and wind it tightly around
them in the place where the rule
comes, first cleaning the rollers where
the cloth is to adhere. Be sure that
the end is well fastened, and let the
gum dry a few minutes before start
ing the press. By doing this the rule
does not come in contact with the
composition, and does not take as
much ink or pull the paper as badly.
