If you look at the press, you will see a sort of trough on the top of each 
color unit (a multiple color press is just several single color presses 
hooked together) that supplies ink. There are likely a line of small metal 
knobs on it, each an inchor so appart. These control ink flow. The pressman 
can send more or less ink to the plate in small swaths. As they overlap, 
there is no banding. They may make adjustments in mid-run.

A good pressman can save your bacon, a bad one can make anyone look bad.
