This was my first job. I loved it. My boss told me it will be something I will never forget. He was right and the best boss I have ever had. Press printing is like driving a manual transmission car. Let’s stop being lazy. Let’s keep it alive!!❤
@@xurritoalejandro8109yeah, so does using a stove instead of the good ole days where we cooked out pigs over fires. Your argument about being lazy makes no sense. How is me printing my stuff at home lazy?
@@xurritoalejandro8109going to this shop is lazier because you're making them do it for you. Whereas I have to work for my printer, refill my printer, and buy ink.
The vibe of this store and how it's operated by the owner gives off a 90's cultural vibe - and that's really appealing for a lot of individuals, myself included : D
He just needs to modernize the way he advertises his business. I'm sure people will love his old school high quality prints. He needs a website. Wish him the best.
Sadly as a printer lover, the number of times ive seen blurry compressed pixelated photos get printed out on copy paper and most people don't see anything wrong with it. Only other designers and artists seem to tell the difference
Same!! I worked in a photography lab for years and people would save photos off of Facebook, pixelated and compressed, and print them. The number of times people wouldn't even SAVE the photo and would screenshot so you'd see the "Like" and "Comment" buttons was so frustrating to me.
As a regular person, i can tell the difference. But I never knew there was another way to print which makes better quality. Guess it is kind of like operating systems. Most people stick with windows because they don't know of any alternatives (not trying to start anything, just using an example so don't start devolving this to anybody that reads.)

Unreal . I know your trade . Because it is my trade . Offset printing. The Guttenberg printing press . The colour separations. The "catch up" . Bleeds. The 🤔 short runs, long runs, work and turn . Two up, four up, six up, eight up . Marginal areas . Paper stock . Guillotine. Dark room photography. Lithography. Port Press Commercial Printers: For all your printing requirements. And of course I remember it , just as anyone remembers their own livelihood working trade history . Its owner operator initiator Jason Ciavola, did the work of ten thousand men readers . I know . Because I was there . I understand the trade , so this presentation excites and interests explicably. He could conduct one hour come and see education tours, of the workshop and its working operations for secondary school students, or other interest groups ( gold coin per person entry) as a means of keeping the trade alive and extra income IF so desired , as am quite certain there would be heritage support, interest for that .
The company I work for is much like this but we've been open since 1888. We do have a website, but it is very outdated and none of the links work. We also have another guy who does it with just his machines and his fliphone. We use all the same machines he does too, its cool to see it on youtube
My husband used to run an off set printing press years ago. There was this material inside of it… kind of very thick batting. It was perfect for potholders!
@@Nooby888 me aunt marmalade tried to make her antique table modern and all she ended up doing was making a beautiful printer table of lucite and diamonds. She is world famous.
My family owns an offset plant, we migrated to printing boxes, labels and packaging 20 years ago. It was the best decision we made, from a small shop, the business grows to one with 200+ staffs and operating 24/7. Packaging is one area where digital printing wont be taking over anytime soon.
Sadly, with the right person teaching him social media, he could be making tons more money and earning way more business (which may require him expanding a bit). And if he's not already a millionaire, he could easily be one, simply based on supply and demand - He's doing this in one area, but what if businesses nationwide knew about his business?
this is cool. Someone needs to tell him that his business could last a little longer if he tries doing any type of advertising. Like doing this Inside edition segment will probably help attract business. It wont keep him in business forever but it may extend it a little more. I mean you gotta at least show up in a google search lol
A website can be a curse on a small business. I operate a business that would support a headless server on lets say, AWS, for your website. The server is cheap, but the labor isn't, your server gets constantly attacked, and you have to have somebody good at graphics art for the website itself that can operate a CMS. Then it has to be updated regularly both software-wise and with deals, items for sale, so on and so forth. A small business that has a good product, such as this gentleman has, really doesn't need a website, and it can be a money drain, IMHO.
This kind of printing put a family printing business out in the 80s that had the type that had to be set by hand. Each technology change this happens unfortunately.
It’s every industry. Digital dentures being sold as best thing to dentistry since tooth paste, but give those new digital dentures 6months to 1year, see what happens. Sure keeps my repair service busy these days , that’s the one good thing I see from this “advancement “ . When did easier come to mean better? I was raised, if you’re putting your name on it, you make the best you can. Convenient and cost effective digitizing seems to be killing a lot of that craftsmanship. It’s truly sad to watch.
His advertisement is his quality of work. Good people refer good people, most of the time.
Great for mass producing propaganda!
Ancient arts should be kept alive for our future generation to see❤
ancient?
true but this is not considered ancient
@@Nelkenshi Mayhaps archaic?
Yes in a museum.
@ yes that’s one way of preservation 👍

It is not about being lazy it's called technology, with you're thinking anyone who drives a car is lazy. Go walk instead.
@ tech is good but it makes us lazy. Sorry but truth hurts.

My dude is using the Mr Robot font, respect
I had to go back and look
Mr robot series is known for stealing things though 😂
Bless his heart. May he continues with his business for many more years to come. 🙏
Well, Mr. Printer is going to show up in online searches now, thanks to you, Inside Edition!
Proof your reputation will speak for you
Brings back so many memories. Miss print shops like that. I worked at many in south Florida.
*Blessings to you. Good luck Mr. Hicks!*

Same too you 😁
@ Thank you 🙏
You should say happy new year to Mr print
OMG THIS IS THE COOLEST THING EVER!!! I HOPE HE STAYS IN BUSINESS FOR MANY MORE YEARS!!!
Protect this man and his business at all costs!
No Linotype 😂😂😂,Great work keeping that old press going,probably hard to get parts.😎
Start a GO Fund ME support this historic method of printing.
This is what my father did in California since 92 until he had to close his shop 2 years ago because rent to his shop kept going up.
The company I work for is much like this but we've been open since 1888. We do have a website, but it is very outdated and none of the links work. We also have another guy who does it with just his machines and his fliphone. We use all the same machines he does too, its cool to see it on youtube

So you've been playing with asbestos. Good job.
Not everything has to be modern, just let that old guy do his printer service, stop making everything modern
@@Nooby888 me aunt marmalade tried to make her antique table modern and all she ended up doing was making a beautiful printer table of lucite and diamonds. She is world famous.
This!!! 💯
Maybe we can live in a world where we have a little bit of everything
Save this business 🙏

Hope he gets more business! Cool and upbeat guy.
This business should be protected as a historical site lol
Praying for continued success 🙏🏾🖤👑
He has a great energy - wish him many more years of success
I want my whole life to be printed in this store, nowhere else!!!
Bro that should be popular Man that IS just awesome. Dude I need to find some places that have this. Oh also HAPPY NEW YEAR Folks.😅
I admire him for not selling out to modern technology. What a cool, dedicated fellow.
Did offset printing for 38 years it’s hardly dying his method is though for sure
His laughh 😭
I think he has a chest problem
Leave unc alone he built like that 😂
Sadly, with the right person teaching him social media, he could be making tons more money and earning way more business (which may require him expanding a bit). And if he's not already a millionaire, he could easily be one, simply based on supply and demand - He's doing this in one area, but what if businesses nationwide knew about his business?
After your report, his business just got better
He seems like such a sweetheart❤
I just got a job as an offset printer on Indeed, came to RUclips to see what it was and found this video which was just uploaded.
My teacher use a printer like this when I was in elementary school, I love it!😅
I pass him every day on the way to work! Will have to stop in and say hey!
If he's a local guy who knows his clientele, he doesn't need it. Four color printing. Light to dark. :)
Imagine you have to take over his office :-)
THE GOOD OLD DAYS OF DOIN BUSINESS
Word of mouth, especially from A television 📺 reporter, is better than Google
this is cool. Someone needs to tell him that his business could last a little longer if he tries doing any type of advertising. Like doing this Inside edition segment will probably help attract business. It wont keep him in business forever but it may extend it a little more. I mean you gotta at least show up in a google search lol
We have one in my city too.
Wow it looks amazing 😍
That laugh should be a meme 😂.
You must open yourself to be known in social media.
That's what she said
Mad men era tv shows should definitely use his business to make props.
Now he’s on tv
if its stil high quality, its underrated
Lots of old companies have no website
This is awesome!❤
Very cool business.
Not the Mr. Robot reference 😭 He even has the font and similar looking store too
his laugh is funny XD, the wheezing is hilarious.
My dad worked on these from the 50’s to early 2000’s.
How do you get the supplies to run that machine cuz they're probably out of business
Surprisingly he might get more business with a website
The title felt like having a stroke when I tried to read it
What an adorable man.
Hire someone that handles the online presence and advertising. Being stubborn about utilizing the internet is taking its toll.
A website can be a curse on a small business. I operate a business that would support a headless server on lets say, AWS, for your website.

That laugh is incredible
He need to do a little advertising. Due to the online world places is going out of business, malls is becoming obsolete which is sad.
He might not have any advertisements out but I'm sure someone could post ish about it somewhere. It's still be word of mouth ish.
Yo ladies hit him up from roun da corner on his lunch break
I love it 😍
Who is the random old guy at the start? Mr hicks' [indo-caribbean] father?
The printing he does looks like explored promotion.
그가 인쇄하는 것은 마치 탐험된 홍보처럼 보입니다.
Travel back in time kinda sorta
Better quality? Nah son. What's the DPI difference?
So beautiful! I absolutely love this!

Love that dude!
the future is now, get to it
Wow amazing
Nice. 😊
He looks good
Nice!
SOMEONE STILL USING YOUR SERVICE?
❤❤❤
💛💛💛
I hope someone helps him out..
What does he need help with? He is doing fine and seems happy and comfortable. Not everyone is asking for handouts.
How do they go online?
Easy. With a margin alignment adjuster!

Dude doesn't get advertising is a big revenue generator. He could be making more money if he didn't have such a stuck mindset.
he's probably happy with the amount of money he makes and the amount of work he does.not everyone is trying to make every dollar they can.
