Why does my label web wrinkle and wander off track through the press?
Posted by the SuperPrinters team · 7/26/2026
The roll-fed web develops diagonal creases or wrinkles as it runs and/or drifts side to side so the print and die-cut wander out of their lane. Wrinkles can print through as ink voids, throw off registration, and eventually cause web breaks. Most often caused by incorrect or unbalanced web tension (too high necks and stretches the web; too low lets it flutter and slip), among other possible causes — a full step-by-step diagnostic and fix follows below.
