We used to have a manual printer machine, we could never align the stencil over the PCB well, now with the new stencil we have less defects but still appearing on the Top list. I tried to use more fids as you recommend and one issue I faced was that

until you know if you stencil does align with the pads on the board all the fids in the world will not help you. registration is key. We do it a lot at our facility in Toronto as we have lots of measuring equipment. In cases like this. We lay the ste
