Import Tips
• Verify sheet size compliance (max 22cm x 36cm unfolded) with technical specs to avoid reclassification to larger format machinery
• Include detailed machine blueprints and plate system documentation for CBP review to confirm offset printing mechanism
• Ensure CE marking or equivalent for electrical safety, as office machines face strict import standards
