Toning has many causes;
fountain solution too strong,
inks too thinned out,
insufficient dampening,
wrong fountain chemistry.
Are you running a PrintMaster?

yes, the boss put new rollers in the front unit and he seems to think the rollers are set right. Well I looked and reajusted the water rollers cause they were out of adjustment. He seems to think that the inking rollers are fine? I use the same formula on my fountain solution on both units. The 2nd unit is fine I can run all colors without toning, however its a no go on the first unit. Could there be a possibility that my inking rollers are carring to much ink and my dampening unit cannot keep up?
