    My 3rd form is leaving roller marks across the print, I need
    to adjust the form to the distributor but I'm not understanding
    the manual, It says to engage ink forms to plate to check the
    stripe on the distributor roller... is this correct?
    Also it says use the red adjusting screw to set pressure, I don't
    see a red one on the press I have pink ( see pic ) is this the correct
    screw for adjustment?
    This is for PU 1.

    You have to turn the form rollers on to be able adjust the red screw. It is located under the plate cylinder journal. It moves forward slightly when form rollers are turned on. Access from the top straight down on Operators side and through long slot through top guard on drive side
