Just came here from watching "The Post" and wondered how newspapers were used to make.

All that work just to print a newspaper. Wow.

From (at least) the 10:00 mark, on....virtually _NOTHING_ has changed....from the production, reel, & mailroom ends of things...over the last _FIFTY-PLUS YEARS_ !! With...perhaps, the exception of the fact that the manpower has been whittled by about (literally!!) 80-90%! I'm a pressman at the newspaper that *Tony Soprano* used to have delivered. In the mid-80's, there were 120+ men on the markup. Today,...we have _less than_ 25, and they're looking to cut the number down by 3 more.... _BEFORE THE END OF APRIL_ ! I'll be lookin' @ "early retirement", soon,...and I'm _NOWHERE_ near [realistic] retirement age....lol.

That process is so much more fascinating than I expected, despite it being a literal everyday process. I don't know what I expected, but not that they remold the plates everyday with lead.

With due respect - 13:31 - someone employed to touch the top of each newspaper stack lol. in sunglasses. Doesn't seem to be efficient but the whole process is amazing whatsoever

Lovely. Worked at Danish national newspaper Berlingske Tidende from 1985. They left hot metal the year before.

El sistema tipografico nunca lo conocí, solo oí acerca de el.

It's amazing how complex it seems to be, yet they must have done this with ease and amazing speed, considering many newspapers put out 2 issues per day!!!!

Amazing goss newsliner machine

I started working as a pressman 1972 retired 2020

Very nice I worked lithograhy Best wishes ❤

just use a computer

Was that The San Jise Mercury News headquarters at the opening sequence?

Now the youngsters will know why the Press is called the press. LOL

The old way of making toilet paper

We used a Gestetner printer. Perforated paper stencil, wet ink. Hand crank to start, flip a switch to run a batch. Try to keep your hands clean!

So much lead....!

Fake news back in the day…

The process isis complicated

its too bad this died. in high school, i took 3 years of print. I loved working the small press we had. It was just big enough to do school newspapers( and also big enough to take your arm off) We used to do newspapers, pamphlets, and all kinds of other things like ads and such..We used the newest(at the time) LaserJet sheet velums as plates that could be printed off the laserjet in a sheet and attached to the rollers. so no steel plates needed for most projects and new plates could be made in minutes. We also had a screen-printing press to we also did t-shirts. I was really good at it and even won an award for it. But by the time i graduated, most newspapers were going out of business or going online. Its really too bad, i would have loved a career as a press operator. There is still screen printing but thats so easy and there isnt as much money in it and its definitely less dangerous and complicated. Operating a printing press is an art really.

So interesting to see how it used to be done and how many trades could be learnt.

Rodney Dangerfield... " What a nightmare..." everything had to be rewritten in the composing room.

You mean, newspapers used to objectively report news?

This is insane. I didn't expect it to be that complex. And that considering they were already using some computers

Its amazing to see how the printing technology evolved

I used to be a van boy on the London evening news

So many processes and special machines to get ink on paper, to get information before eyes. I still remember the sound of the newspaper landing at our front door in the morning. I live in San Diego, and today the grand edifice that once housed our local newspaper (San Diego Union/Tribune) is now being repurposed for other activities. The paper still exists, but is owned by NantCapital, the same group that owns the LA Times.

Can someone tell me if you can run a Polaroid pic thru this? I’ve been in the process of scanning all my old photos but I have quite a few Polaroid ones and those are a quite bit thicker width. I don’t want to ruin my scanner but I don’t know what else to scan the Polaroids with.

I worked for the st.Petersburg times for 38 years. 1973 to 2012. I was 19 when I started. It was a great job for a high school kid to move into the middle class, much like auto workers in their prime years! Then there was Craigslist. But technology wins. Thanks for uploading these!!! Paul

Hi, my scanner keeps blinking . What can I do

I grew up in the production end of The Jackson (TN) Sun. Very familiar scenes. Thank you!

I never worked for the Newspaper

I was only 2 years old in 1970.

Can’t find a cord for it

Hi Aaron. What is exactlly the correct power suply (DC Font) for the Scanner PANDIGITAL. Could you help me?

I need to buy a new power cord for this unit. Do you buy any chance know what size it is? Thanks.

I just bought a used 1642 this is very helpful because I'm trying to decide the best choice in moving it. Looks like it breaks down and reassembles well. Good video.

Caught a 3 second shot of my dad at 14:39.... he's been gone for over 5 years so this was a precious moment.

How would the process be different in the 1950s? Perhaps some of the automation was a later development but would the same printing press have been in use?

*I have had this lathe for 5 months now and have experienced nothing but enjoyment and ease of use. Works right out of the box with no set up or adjustment.>>>**ur2.pl/854** Heavy duty construction makes for no wobble on the bench top without any screws to hold down even on larger bowls. Great variable speed, and reversible for sanding if you like. have turned pens, stoppers, bowls, goblets and just about anything I can think of this tool performs well. I have not tried the outboard side for turning yet, but plan to make a heavy duty tool rest stand from the floor and try turning much larger bowls. Seems like it wood work, but will not know until I try.*

i,ve just tried to use mine after about 4 years but it won,t copy onto sd card...its as new so i can,t see it being dirty it was well sealed in a box

What's a newspaper??

You can also make a hat with it! Love Conrad.

I have a Pandigital PANSCN05, and have been very happy with it, but lost the calibration card. Is there anywhere I can get a copy, or download the image that I could print onto card stock myself for a replacement - Thanks!

Awesome demo!! Very helpful. Thanks.

do you know where to get the negatives scanner attachment from?

Thank you for the video. I've had this for 5 years and still have not used it. :)

scanned beautifully but does not allow you to scan different size negatives

I replaced TWO VFD's on my 1642 lathe. Jet wants $ 600 plus for each replacement. The problem is that their VFDs are rated for one HP and the 1642 has a one and a half motor. Jet refuses to stand by their product !
