Sounds like blankets (loose) or blanket packing issue. Also paper and or feeder setup. Dot gain can also be ink and water inbalance. Bad etch. Try...
1998 not cd no varios. Nice print quality but MAJOR ELECTRICAL ISSUES. In it for lots of boards at $3500 + each and Heidelberg still cant figure...
Ours did that. Our heidelberg air dryer quit. We didnt know. Whole air line system was full of water. Pneumatic relays started failing all over...
Another issue I have seen in older 102s is sticky buttons at the console. You tap it and walk away and it got stuck n kept goin.
I agree with exheidmech. Potentiameters on the sweep motors or motors themselves. That would be intermitant.
Actually not trying to set it yet but two units seem to drop color upon increasing speed. Those two are set differently than the rest. The book is...
Bottcher is the only way to go for rollers and blankets. Also K & E for inks.
Ours did that too. Turns out after years of people poking liners ink built up in the keys. Those tiny motors can't handle much resistance. If...

Sure...the console has faulty wiring...bad ground system. WE have to pay to "upgrade" it. The air cabinet hoses blow out, and every time we order...
Also, sometimes depending on the ink or etch when you get running the inks start to run "hot"....thats just the ink catching up to the water from...
Had a similar problom...turned out to be the helper mixed the fountain solution wrong.
Heidi techs, mechs and electricians only tell clients "need to know information". Thats how they make money. They recomenond and advise, but in...
