I can't figure out why there's still newspaper in the presses, stopped midstream.

JT@cjordahl @AbandonedAmerica It’s a time saver. When an edition is done the press is slowed to a stop and the paper left in place. That way the pressmen do not have to re-web the press for the next run. Even if there is a configuration change, it makes it easier to re-web if the paper can be cut where the change occurs rather than feed it all the way through the units.
Rosey@J_T @cjordahl @AbandonedAmerica Webouts suck. At least ten minutes to web up and another three to perfect the alignment and tension.
A lot of paper waste for that whole operation as well.
