Misting

Fine droplets of ink formed on the rollers fly off creating a mist.

Cause Cure
Too much ink being pushed to reach desired density. Replace with stronger ink sets to run thinner films
Static electricity impacts the roller train. Ensure press is properly grounded
Rollers are worn or are improperly set. Check roller for durometer and damage. Check roller settings and reset to manufacturers specs
Ink tack too low. See Ink manufacturer
Roller train is too hot. Adjust chill water temp
Improper ink/water balance. See ink/water balance
